3 min readMar 19, 2026 03:02 PM IST England wicketkeeper-batter Jamie Smith believes missing out on the Indian Premier League (IPL) this year might turn out to be “a blessing in disguise” as he prepares for an important red-ball season in his home country. The 25-year-old, who went unsold at the auction for IPL 2026, said that he still aspires to play in the cash-rich league, but due to the unexpected time off from the game, he is now focused on preparing to play his best possible cricket in the longer formats ahead of England’s Test matches this summer, beginning in June against New Zealand. “At the time, I would have definitely liked to have gone, it’s an ambition of mine to strengthen all sides of my game, and I see the IPL as something that can really enhance the white-ball side and does have benefits for the red-ball game,” the Surrey gloveman said on ESPNcricinfo. “But in hindsight, it’s fantastic to have a block of red-ball cricket. Towards the back end of the summer …

Bad Luck, faulty selections and a Steve Smith insult

Bad Luck, faulty selections and a Steve Smith insult

Around 2 am in Australia, the texts began. Bharat Sundaresan and Tom Morris were on air for Sen Radio, calling the T20 World Cup, when their phones lit up. Not a trickle. A flood. Australian fans, awake in the middle of the night, furious. About Cameron Green. About Steve Smith sitting in the stands. About a team that had flown halfway across the world and was losing to Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka. The received wisdom has always been simple: Australians play T20, they just don’t feel it. The Big Bash is background noise. The T20 World Cup is something that happens. The real game, the real identity, lives in the baggy green, in five-day Tests, in the mythology of the Ashes. The ODI World Cup, at a push. “Not if you saw some of the texts,” Sundaresan says. “I see it this way: had Australia won the games against Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka, the fans wouldn’t have not been so enthused about following the World Cup. They would have said, ‘yeah that was expected’. And …

Steve Smith Named as Replacement for Josh Hazlewood in Australia’s T20 World Cup Squad

The batter Steve Smith has been added to the Australia T20 World Cup 2026 squad as a replacement for injured Josh Hazlewood. The fast bowlers have been ruled out of the competition due to calf injury, despite the medical teams having previously hoped to have him fit for the latter part of the tournament. This has made way for Steve Smith to return to T20Is. Josh Hazlewood was sidelined on February 05, with Australia selector Tony Dodemaide saying, “We were hopeful Josh would be back to match fitness by the Super 8 stage, but the latest indications he is still some time away and accelerating his program will carry too much risk.” However, Australia has to seek ICC to approve Steve Smith as a replacement on February 15, a day ahead of their next fixture against co-hosts Sri Lanka. The 36-year-old Steve Smith hasn’t played a T20I since February 2024 and last featured in the T20 World Cup in the 2022 edition. In 14 innings at the T20 World Cup, he has hit just one …

Steve Smith replaces injured Josh Hazlewood in Australia’s T20 World Cup squad | Cricket News

2 min readFeb 16, 2026 03:35 PM IST Australia’s T20 World Cup campaign was reshaped again after Steven Smith was announced as a replacement for injured fast bowler Josh Hazlewood ahead of the crucial league phase clash against Sri Lanka in Kandy on Monday. The ICC Event Technical Committee approved the change after Hazlewood was ruled out with a calf injury that had kept him sidelined since February. Despite initial optimism that he might recover in time for the latter stages, medical advice confirmed he would not be fit to contribute. “We were hopeful Josh would be back to match fitness by the Super 8 stage, but the latest indications he is still some time away, and accelerating his program will carry too much risk,” selector Tony Dodemaide said. “ICC regulations stipulate any squad change must be submitted and activated at least one day prior to a match. With Steve here, along with some uncertainty around Mitch and Marcus Stoinis, it made sense he [Smith] is activated and available for selection in time for the …
