    BGT 2024-25: Watson Backs Smith To Bring 'very Best Of Him' Against India

    Willow Talk Cricket Podcast: Former Australia allrounder Shane Watson has expressed confidence in Steve Smith's abilities to bring the best version of him in the upcoming five-Test series against India starting on Friday in Perth.

    Smith, who struggled as an opener, will return to his usual No. 4 spot in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy after Nathan McSweeney was finalised as Usman Khawaja's opening partner for the red-ball format.

    After David Warner's retirement, Smith was elevated to the opening role - the move that didn't go well for the Australian team as the former captain struggled with only 171 runs in four Tests at an average of 28.50 including an unbeaten 91 against West Indies.
