Warner Backs Steve Smith To Score Five Centuries In Ashes, Calls Him ‘best Since Bradman’
Sir Donald Bradman: Former Australia opener David Warner has tipped Steve Smith to dominate England in the upcoming Ashes series, boldly predicting the veteran batter will rack up “five centuries” this summer and cement his place as Australia’s greatest since Sir Donald Bradman.
Smith announced his return to competitive cricket in trademark fashion after a short break in New York, slamming a brilliant 118 for New South Wales against Queensland at the Gabba. The 36-year-old’s 176-ball knock, studded with 20 fours and a six, guided the Blues to 349/5 at stumps on Day Two of the Sheffield Shield clash.
Speaking on Fox Cricket on Wednesday, Warner said Smith’s form was a reassuring sign for Australia ahead of the Ashes.
