    Australian coach Justin Langer is confident Steve Smith will be just fine


    The Australian batsman averaged 42.8 during the test cricket series victory over the Black Caps, somewhat out of form as he usually scores nearly 63 per innings.

    New Zealand paceman Neil Wagner's short pitch approach has been praised as the key to getting Smith out.

    But Langer is far from worried about his star batsman.
