Though Steve Smith barely scored seven runs, he caught everyone’s attention. It was with his funny antics that made everyone laugh. That too, just before the IPL auction, where he could surely be thr most-talked player.

The Incident That Ruined The Reputation Of Steve Smith

It was Team India working hard to fight for a win at Brisbane. The Aussies were frustrated and Steve Smith did what he does best. He tried to disrupt the batsman.

Fans and Pundits did not appreciate his action. Due to this, he even got removed as the skipper of the Rajasthan Royals. He was eventually released by them as well. That was prior to the IPL 2021 auctions.

There were some defending the batsman suggesting that he wasn’t interfering in any way with the ball. Furthermore when some fans called him a cheat, there were some defending him. The mixed opinions surely got a lot of attention from the fans.

What Next For IPL 2021 And The Franchises

All the franchises will be keen on adding some fresh blood, ahead of the upcoming  IPL tournament. There will be ten teams from the upcoming campaign. Due to that, it will be  important for the teams to plan long-term.

Steve Smith could be a strong and reliable option for the future. That is if a team decides to take the risk and buy him. It will be a risk as teams may not want to hurt their reputation.

Steve Smith is one of the best batsmen in the world. He is right there at the top with the likes of Virat Kohli, Kane Williamson and Joe Root. That is especially in the Test format. Let’s see if he can win an IPL title soon or not. The big teams will want to add him to their squad for better stability for sure.
