'Enjoyed The First Couple Of Weeks Of It', Says Smith On Life As Australia’s Test Opener
On his request, Smith was elevated as Australia’s Test opener after the retirement of David Warner. He recorded scores of 12 and 11 not out in the first Test against the West Indies, before making six in the first innings of the second game at Brisbane.
Smith then carried his bat to make 91 not out in the second innings, where Australia suffered a shock eight-run defeat to West Indies. "There was a lot of commentary around I'd failed in two or three innings - I had a not out and two low scores. Now I'm averaging 60 as an opener.
