Dwayne Smith is known as a big-hitter, and similarly his retirement from first class cricket has come as a big blow for the Barbados Pride.

Two days after bowling Barbados to victory over the Windward Volcanoes in the WICB’s Professional Cricket League competition, Smith, 31, surprisingly retired from the regional Four-Day format.

Both the Pride’s head coach Henderson Springer and captain Carlos Brathwaite have admitted that losing the swashbuckling batsman has come as a huge blow for the defending champions.
