A hard-hitting batsman and a handy stump to stump bowler, Smith was a key member of West Indies' limited overs setup. He played 105 ODIs in which he scored 1560 runs at an average of 18.57 and a strike rate of 92.69. He also picked up 61 wickets at 37.45 apiece and an economy rate of 5.02.

In 33 T20Is, the Barbadian scored 582 runs at an average of 18.18 and a strike rate of 122.78. Having not played a single international game for the West Indies since March 2015, Smith decided to call time on his international career earlier this year.
