Don't kid yourself Smith won us the Ashes, without him we lose 100%, just like we did when he didn't play.
Don't let victory cover the cracks.
I assume your first sentence is a question and not a statement.
Yes we can play better. Who can't?
I don't agree that we would lose 100% of tests without Smith. the one we did lose will be remembered for all time as that 1 in 1000 results.
What about our recent home series as well. Clearly there is a reason he is the Blonde Don, that's because without him our batting line up is F****d and doesn't give the bowlers enough runs to win games.
There is no shame in that unless we had to recruit him from another country,

“You’re marked and you take it to your grave.
“Whatever Steve Smith does, he’ll always be remembered for what happened in South Africa.”
Harmison added that is “something he’s got to live with”.
“I can’t see anybody’s opinion changing on Smith, Bancroft, or Warner. Because of what they’ve done, they’ve tarnished the game,” he said.

Was also part of a team that got away with the exact same thing as Steve Smith was implicated in.....ball tampering but instead of sandpaper it was a pack of mints!
