Australia have two of the three largest victories in terms of runs, 309 and 275 against Netherlands and Afghanistan respectively. This World Cup has seen a lot of one-sided matches with a lot of big wins. How do you look at it? There have been very few close contests. How do you look at this and is it good for one day cricket and the 50 over format? And what do you read about these kind of wins?

 

[Steve Smith:]

 

Honestly, I haven’t paid too much attention to the deficits, it’s just been about playing the games and yeah, we’ve had a couple of big wins which have been nice for us and for us it's just focusing on what we can do out in the middle. We've got a game here tomorrow against Afghanistan who are a dangerous side on their day and we certainly won't be taking them lightly.

I just wondered if you could give us a bit of a reflection on your tournament. It strikes me as being quite frustrating. You've made 150, you're averaging 29. You look like you've built foundations but haven't been really able to cash in.

 

[Steve Smith:]

 

Yeah, no, it's been a little bit disappointing at times. I've been in the middle of a few partnerships that have helped build a foundation for sure, but yeah, definitely would have liked to have gone on with it a little bit more. I've got in on some tricky surfaces, obviously the first one against India was a tricky one, the South Africa one where I felt like I was batting nicely - questionable sort of LBW and then got a got a good one early I suppose against Sri Lanka. I was batting nicely against Netherlands and then was batting reasonably the other day against England. So yeah, a couple of starts where I would have liked to have gone on with it a little bit more, but it wasn't to be. But I still feel like I'm hitting the ball quite well, so hopefully some runs at the back end of the tournament.

Smith's vertigo issue could well through a spanner in the works, even though it'll be a case you'd think of how he feels on the morning of the match before any call gets taken.

Cricket World Cup 2023 | Australia vs Afghanistan Playing 11 live updates | Preview in brief

With seats filling up fast for World Cup semifinals, Australia will look to banish middle-order woes and secure a final four spot against a fearless Afghanistan at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Tuesday.

 

Only two places remain up for the taking with rampant India slated to finish atop the World Cup points table. South Africa have also qualified.

 

With no other team directly threatening Australia's progression into the semifinals, Pat Cummins' men would like to finish the job at the first given opportunity here at the Wankhede Stadium a venue that has been a paradise for batting but also supports the bowlers adequately if they are good enough to exploit the conditions.

 

The battle promises to be an enticing watch given Afghanistan's battery of spinners and resolute batting itching to deliver a strong show against Australia, for whom leg-spinner Adam Zampa's 19 wickets in seven matches are the most for any bowler in this World Cup.
