Moving to off and playing to leg seems a standard method for SA batsmen, Jonathan Trott does the same but they learned how to adapt to swinging conditions, I'm not convince Smith has done so. My belief is that bowlers don't attack the correct line outside Smith's off stump often enough, even when they try they lose patience and try to get him LBW as he looks a prime candidate. Kohli is not too dissimilar to Smith and even Cook in his struggles tried a similar approach but it didn't help him much. G. Smith from memory didn't move to off he stood almost in front of his wicket and stood and delivered without footwork, relying on not missing the ball.
Work expands to fill the time available, so why do today what can be put off until tomorrow.
