I think as an Australian cricketer we talk about Ashes, which is always big, the World Cup is big, but I think now India is the No.1 team in the world and it is a very difficult place to play Test cricket, so I would love to win a series there."OUT NOW: The Royals Podcast with Ish Sodhi ft. Steve Smith! 😍🕺🏻Our skipper discusses his new beard, batting technique, future goals and much more, on Ep 2! 👇#HallaBol | #RoyalsFamily | @ish_sodhi | @stevesmith49— Rajasthan Royals (@rajasthanroyals) April 7, 2020After the ball-tampering saga in 2018, Smith made a remarkable comeback to the national side, helping Australia retain the Ashes despite facing some hostile blows from the likes of England's Jofra Archer.Smith praised Indian all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja for his accurate lines and lengths while bowling on sub-continental pitches. According to him, Jadeja hid his variations well and made it hard for the batsman to decipher the good length deliveries."Jadeja in the sub-continent... he hits that good length and one ball skids on and one spins, and it just looks all the same out of the hand. I think consistency in length is key and then having at least one variation."
