There is no doubt that Australia skipper Steve Smith is one of the best batters in the modern era but has not found much form in the format in recent times. He has struggled against the pace and variation of Lungi Ngidi in the past who took a couple of wickets against Afghanistan as well. 

Smith has not only been dismissed by Ngidi but does not have great numbers against him as well. The Australian great averages only 20 against the 28-year-old right-arm pacer and has an underwhelming strike rate of 71.4. He will want to improve on this in the match.
