Smith played international cricket for England between 1988 and 1996. He played 62 Test matches and 71 ODIs and was also part of the England side that reached the final of the 1992 Cricket World Cup. Smith scored 4,236 runs in Tests at an average of 43.67, including nine centuries, with a best score of 175 runs.
"A brave and dashing batsman, he excelled both for Hampshire and his adopted country collecting legions of admirers and friends along the way," Smith's family said in a statement.
"This is an immensely difficult period for us all whilst we try to come to terms with our bereavement, and we would therefore much appreciate consideration for our privacy by media and cricket followers alike.”
