“It wasn’t pretty”: Flashbacks for Steve Smith after arriving in South Africa

Supplied video obtained Thursday, February 20, 2020 of batsman Steve Smith speaking to reporters in Johannesburg ahead of his side's T20 clash with South Africa. Smith admits to flashbacks returning to the team hotel where he was handed a 12-month ball-tampering ban. "Probably just walking into the hotel, just initially I was like 'last time I was here, it wasn't pretty'," Smith says. "It wasn't the best time in my life. But I've moved on from that, learned a lot over the last two years and I'm moving forward... it's good to be back here playing and I'm looking forward to this series."
