Recently, the Australian southpaw appeared on a talk show in which he talked about Virat Kohli and revealed that they both have been in touch for quite some time now. Applauding Virat, Steve says that the former is a terrific person and also tells that they have not only exchanged messages but talked few times as well in order to know about the conditions in India. As per Steve, they both play hard on the field for their teams and it is part and parcel of the game.

Steve Smith is all praises for Virat and the manner in which he has led the team. Steve adds that the Indian team is a great side and it will be fun when India will be touring Australia later this year. He also talked about the incident which happened in the 2019 ICC World Cup.

In India-Australia match in the 2019 ICC World Cup, some Indian fans were booing Steve Smith and David Warner and they were referring to the ball tampering scandal because of which Steve and David were banned for a year.
