Smith is currently the skipper of Rajasthan Royals in IPL 13.
Steve Smith is currently having a hard time leading the Rajasthan Royals (RR) in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 with only 3 wins in 8 games. Two out of those three wins have come because of some extraordinary efforts of Rahul Tewatia in the death.
Inside the RR camp, the atmosphere is not bad despite the results and it is evident from the players' videos and social media. In a video released by Rajasthan Royals, England wicket-keeper Jos Buttler is seen asking Smith some rapid-fire questions.

One of the questions was to name the best captain in world cricket at the moment.
Buttler asked, "Who is the best captain currently in world cricket?"
Smith took his time to answer but came up with the name of England's only World Cup-winning captain Eoin Morgan.
Smith replied, "Oh, tough question. I think Eoin Morgan maybe in one-day cricket. Obviously, he did very well for England. Hearing from you and Stokesy and stuff very well respected, great tactically on the field and yeah I’ll go with him."
With some ancient rivalry among the Aussies and the Englishmen, Buttler found it interesting that Smith praised an England cricketer.
"Tough to say that for an Aussie though," Buttler said as both had a laugh.
