England enjoyed a thumping victory in their Women's Cricket World Cup opener after bowling the Proteas for just 69 and Smith was the pick of the bowlers, finishing with three for seven from four overs.
The spinner claimed the huge scalp of captain Laura Wolvaardt in only the second over before bowling Tazmin Brits and Marizanne Kapp.
Smith made her ODI bow for England against the West Indies before playing in the India series and she expressed her pride at helping the team claim victory in their World Cup opener.
