Steve Smith
Former Australia coach Mickey Arthur said he expected Steven Smith to recover from the ball-tampering scandal which has left him with a lengthy ban, but added that he wasn't so sure about co-conspirator David Warner.
Arthur, now coach of Pakistan, also told AFP: "I feel desperately sorry for Smith. I know he eats, sleeps and drinks cricket." "He loves cricket and everything he did. He loved the job, he was passionate about the job. I think he was a very good leader and an unbelievable cricketer."
