I feel you guys are wrong in comparing Sachin and Smith as both have different styles of batting, and Sachin was definitely a great batsman when he was playing, and today Smith is undoubtedly one of the best batsmen in the world. Also Dravid was given a specific role i.e. he had to frustrate the bowlers while other batsmen scored runs, and had he not done that then Sehwag and Sachin would never have been able to score runs as wickets would have kept falling on the other side of the pitch.
This is exactly what I tried to mention,Smith of good player and one of the best at the moment but I said the world class where we also have to see the techniques along with batting styles that is why he is not greater in other formats yet but remember still he is young and will reach more and more high in the upcoming series.Sachin was a player who was tailor-made for the ODI format. On the other hand, Smith is more suited for the test format when compared to the shorter formats. At least during the early part of his career, the Indian batting was heavily dependent on Sachin. When he failed, there was more than a 90% chance that India would lose the match. There is no such dependency on Smith, as they have good players such as David Warner, Aaron Finch and Marnus Labuschagne to support him.
