[Saba Sports News] Australian cricket star Steve Smith recently spoke about his international cricket career’s future. At 34, Smith, who has played 322 games and scored 15,755 runs for Australia, faces speculation about his retirement. Contrary to setting a fixed retirement date, Smith prefers a day-by-day approach, focusing on enjoying the present rather than worrying about the future.
In an interview with Fox Sports, Smith emphasized his preference for living in the moment and not getting caught up in discussions about his legacy or future in cricket. “I take it series by series, game by game, and just enjoy myself in the moment. We’ll sort all that stuff out, and whatever legacy, whatever that looks like, is not really something for me to bother about,” he said.
Additionally, Smith expressed his commitment to mentoring younger players. He mentioned that his door is always open for young batters seeking advice or discussions, leveraging his own experiences to guide them. As vice-captain, he also highlighted his role in supporting the team captain and ensuring smooth team operations.
Smith concluded by reaffirming his enjoyment of his current role and his dedication to assisting emerging talent in the team.
