Steve Smith's Game Transformed After 2018 Scandal, Finch Says

Aaron Finch revealed how the 2018 ball-tampering scandal turned Steve Smith into a batting machine. After his suspension, Smith dropped the captaincy weight and focused on his game, which Finch thinks made all the difference. He called Smith the best player he’s played with, especially after that legendary 2019 Ashes where Smith piled up 774 runs like it was nothing.
