Australian batsman Steve Smith is widely regarded as one of the greatest Test cricketers of all time. However, his contributions in One Day International (ODI) cricket often go underappreciated. The New South Wales player has played several memorable innings in the format, including a century against India in the semi-final of the 2015 ICC Cricket World Cup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His relentless pursuit of big hundreds and ability to play long innings has been crucial for Australia, both at home and abroad. With that in mind, let\u2019s take a look at Steve Smith\u2019s five highest scores in ODI cricket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
