Smith, who became a father for the second time earlier on Tuesday, missed training at the Kia Oval, with the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) confirming his withdrawal to be with his family. The 22-year-old Rew will don the gloves and bat at number six, becoming part of an unusual England XI featuring three debutants.
