He could never cement his place in Test cricket but remained a very popular figure in limited-overs cricket. Having featured in 105 One-Day Internationals and 33 T20Is, he smashed a total of 2,142 runs in the two formats.
However, Smith will continue playing domestic T20 tournaments around the world. Caribbean batsman will play in the 2017 Indian Premier League (IPL) for Gujarat Lions.
The tenth edition of the IPL is set to be held from April 5.
