Dwayne Romel Smith (born 12 April 1983, Storey Gap, St Michael, Barbados) is a West Indies cricketer who has played eight Tests and 35 one-day internationals. A hard hitter of the ball with a Test strike rate near 70, Smith made a run-a-ball 105 not out on Test debut against South Africa in 2003–04, but has failed to make a half-century since, with his second-highest Test score of 42 coming against the bottom-ranked Bangladesh. In one-day cricket, Smith has contributed with 474 runs at a batting average of just under 20, but his strike rate is nearly 100 and he has taken eleven wickets with his medium pace, including the scalps of Graeme Smith, Mahela Jayawardene and Tillakaratne Dilshan. He also has two one-day half-centuries, 62 not out against Bangladesh and 68 at the 2005 Indian Oil Cup.
