Former skipper Graeme Smith yesterday dropped in at South Africa's training session, continuing an interesting trend of ex-captains visiting their teams with bagful of wisdom ahead of matches against India.


Before the Sri Lanka-India game, former captain Kumar Sangakkara visited the Sri Lankan team.


Yesterday, it was Smith, who walked in at the Lord's indoor nets. He watched the practice and was seen speaking to head coach Russell Domingo and other support staff.

When South Africa batting coach Neil McKenzie was asked if Smith gave any inputs, he replied: "Obviously Graeme has his opinions. He has been a great captain for South Africa and his inputs ahead of our match against India are invaluable for the boys. It's always nice to have Graeme around and have this kind of support away from home."
