someone finally said it. This is where i put kohli behind steve smith. For all Kohli does, he hasnt done greatly in a knockout. averages mere 22. I'm afraid Kohli because of this will end being called a Rabbit killer.
@@jujuju462 have you seen his performance in 2013 champions trophy final, in 2014 T20 world cup semi final ( match winning performance) and 50 in final 2014 T20 world cup , have you seen kohli in 2016 world cup semifinal against west Indies he scored 84 or something runs in 42 balls , have you seen his performance in champions trophy semifinal against Bangladesh. Please get some cricket knowledge before worshipping foreign players and ignoring and hating our own indian players
Marnus Labushagne is the biggest positive that Australia got from this Ashes. See, Steve Smith, Pat Cummins & Mitchell Starc were already known faces and stars of Test Cricket. But, coming as the replacement of Steve Smith and scoring 4 consecutive fifties is a tough job man. Well played Australia, well deserved victory. Waiting for your series vs India.
It's actually a very good technique to counter the 4th stump line bowling. Anyone with a 'normal' techniqu would have difficulties when someone bowls just outside offstump in swinging or seaming conditions. I feel Steve Smith's technique can counter that.
@@user-qi4mg8fn8t I used to play on rooftop , to keep the ball on ground I needed to turn my body which resembles the same technique as Smith's , the only weakness his technique has is 5 stump to off stump turn and short length on 5 stump
@@mohammedzaid9806 that's true. Also for anyone to replicate that, a very good hand eye coordination is needed along with strong leg side skills. Or else there's a risk of LBW as well.
Best batting performance and sheer dominance by Steven Smith that too in England. Loved his batting in this Ashes !!! What a comeback !! Very well summarized by Sir Harsha Bhogle.
Which is what kl rahul is lacking.......i am not understanding what that ravi shastri and team managemant are doing with him to change his technique...they should have told him to find a way to score runs but not change technique....
Funny thing about Smith is he wasn't considered a top line batsman coming through the ranks, he was considered a bowling all rounder and at stages was compared with Cameron White, it's incredible to see him now being compared to Don Bradman
@@viratkohlifan771 blind Kohli's fan for sure. I do admits that he's my favourite ODI batsman, but when it's comes to test he can't even perform vlose to Smith.
You are the true ocean of cricket knowledge harsha and you said right smith is the back bone of Aussie batting line up . Undoubtedly number 1 test batsman in the world, for me his 92 runs inning was truly amazing after a destructive bouncer as a warrior he stand and delivered. Keep it up champ 💪💪👍👍
He has been unbelievable in the last 3 tests. What a comeback this is ! My word! Absolute best ❤️ Greatest comeback in the history of the game if not Yuvraj's
Believe me or not but when the team needs him Smith scores more runs in knockout odi than Kohli. your records doesn't matter if you choke in big games Mr kohli
dont know this guy but what i learned is he loves the game and has a great knowledge of the game, makes perfect sense ....thank you for sharing your thoughts
No doubt Steve is sensational but you and your way of presenting anything is really humble. I can hear you for hours!! You sees the positive side of everything!!
A great analyst of cricket. He is the only commentator i like from India Bcoz he gives brief details and positives stats of all the domestic and international players which is not common with other indian cricketers(commentators)
It produced Sir Don Bradman, Border, Ponting and now Steve Smith. Yes I am talking about Australian soil, there must be some magic in it which is constantly creating test legends.
Please make a video on historic journey of Afghan cricket team. I can't remember any other team who was able to defeat a mainstream cricket team so convincingly in their only 3rd International test match. They are a class apart. Yesterday Aus, today Afgan great week for intn't test matches.
I born in 1996 but i will die with satisfaction of watching a great(Which is small word when it comes to Smith) player like SPD Smith whom i considered "SIR DON" of test in 21st century.Its like when watching him playing, everybody no matter whats nationality they just want him to go on & on & on......
You have a perfect skill and talent to engage a listener. U are also a legend Harsha ... May God bless you. Keep entertain us with your stories..... It's always a nice experience to listen a story from you...
I don't' remember anyone playing like Smith in recent times against quality bowling. A few support from other batsman and he goes on. He reminds me of Lara, single handedly Lara used to take his team forward.
Steve Smith is a dancing king at the crease. His style and technique is awesome. From him to move around the crease at balls coming at him at 90miles an hour puts the bowler out of his crease. Awesome Steve Smith
I think you are the only one who mentioned Hazelwood performance & important, the unsung strength of Australia but I'm not told that Australia will struggle without him but he gave that extra bit of extra effort than others(starc, Pattinson, siddle)
Harsha literally brought back the old ESPN Star Sports days, he used to talk like this in praise of the all conquering Australian team & their players of late 90s & early 2000s ❤️

Who said smith don't have a good technique his stance is little bit wider but he plays straight drive cover drive just like other player but he is much better than others
Smith has been Godlike, but I still feel there have been a lot of important contributions. Wade's 100 at a rapid pace in the first test insured Australia could set the game up. Couple of 50s from Head when it truly mattered, Labuschagne has done really well in 4/5 innings he batted, Siddle's bowling and 40 odd in the first test was really important too. Smith has been at the helm of it all, but he has been supported well at all the right times by his teammates.
