Lords - Smiths second favorite ground Ahead of the WTC 2025 final Smith revealed that Lords is his second favorite ground after Sydney. He also made a funny comment before the match. He said I think this is my favorite ground after Sydney. Both its history and surface are special. It takes a few balls to adjust to the slope here. At one end it feels like you are standing very high and at the other end it feels like you are falling. But the ball goes fast in both directions. Smith also likes Lords lunch Smith also said in a conversation with ESPNcricinfo And then the lunch here is great. People say that this is a ground where you can enjoy lunch if you are not able to score runs. Fortunately or unfortunately I have performed quite well here in the last few years so I have not been able to enjoy lunch as much.
