He was sacked. He should stay sacked

He killed cricket Bring back Aussie values

make it permanent ......the current guy aint it

Welcome back to what your good at Smithy..!!

Australian standards too low. He should never have been able to be captain again. He thought cheating was OK. Sends the wrong message to young cricketers everywhere.

Yep and I'm betting he won't be dropping catches and getting out with ordinary shots. The 2nd Test had question marks all over it?

I think we all agree. We need to get rid of Cummings and give the captaincy back to Smith where it belongs.

Steve Smith is a cheat.
