Dan Smith was a swashbuckling and combative former New South Wales wicket-keeper batsman who played 25 first class and 30 List A games for his beloved Blues, as well as featuring for both the Sydney Thunder and Sydney Sixers in the BBL from 2011/12 to 2013/14. At one time, Dan held the New South Wales record for the highest one day score of all time, with 179 not out in the 2011/12 season.

Dan is currently the playing coach of the Sydney Cricket Club in the New South Wales Premier Cricket competition, one of the competition’s benchmark clubs who won the 1st XI premiership last season. Dan himself is a legend on the Sydney grade, having racked up well over 300 1st XI games, which is a truly remarkable effort.

A Cricket Australia accredited High Performance Level 3 coach, Dan has also held batting and keeping coach roles in the New South Wales underage and women’s setups, as well having had an involvement in the school Cricket system.
