Steve Smith is returning to the Big Bash League and Sydney Sixers, having signed for the upcoming campaign.

Smith's availability will be determined by Australian selection in the one-day international squad to tour India, with his comeback slated to be after the team return from the subcontinent for the last two to three games of the regular season, and the finals series.

"When the schedule came out and I saw there was a chance to wear the magenta again I jumped at the opportunity and look forward to joining up with the team after my January national team commitments have ended," Smith said.

Think. Is this a bet you really want to place?
