Steve Smith is interested in becoming Australia skipper once again if the opportunity comes but head coach Justin Langer has made it clear that the position is not available right now.

Smith, 31, served a one-year ban from playing and was disqualified from leading Australia for two years because of his role in the 2018 ball-tampering scandal in which some Australians were caught using sandpaper to alter the condition of the ball in a Test against South Africa.
