Heres what CricBuzz says about him.
As regular wicketkeepers Ben Foakes and Ollie Pope were unable to join the pre-season tour to Dubai in July 2018 because of commitments with ECB programmes, Smith was called up to provide more wicketkeeping backup with captain Rory Burns being the only other specialist keeper in the squad. The teenager was granted leave from his high school to represent his county in the ten-day tour, with two List A games against Glamorgan, and one game each with Lancashire and United Arab Emirates XI.
Smith also represents Sutton Cricket Club in the Travelbag Surrey Championship, and has trained with the professional squad in the build-up to the tour, using the world-class facilities that have been in place at the Kia Oval since the end of February. Surrey Academy Director, Gareth Townsend, said 'Jamie’s progressing well and we’ve got no fears at all as to his ability to join the professional squad for this tour – it’s a great opportunity to show what he can do. With 15 Surrey developed players already in the professional squad, we all hope that Jamie can become the latest player to graduate from the Academy and earn full professional honours.”
Having graduated with distinction, Smith now moves on to the next level of cricket and has enough competition to keep him on his toes. Given that he can manage the expectations and ascend beyond the rest of the wicketkeepers in the squad, he can go on to become Surrey's first-choice. It is, however, too early to gauge his performances, and it remains to be seen if he can establish himself on the tour to the UAE.

Heres what ESPNcricinfo says about him.
Jamie Smith is yet another wicketkeeper-batter in the English system, though one predicted to assume the gloves for the national team once the incumbent thirty-somethings move on. That as much was clear in the 2022/23 winter when, aged 22, he struck the fastest hundred by a Lions batter in a four-day match, with a 71-ball effort against Sri Lanka in Galle.
It was his second winter as part of the Lions programme. He was pencilled in as a member of this cohort early the previous summer after an unbeaten 234 against Gloucestershire in his third red ball innings of the summer. Though he was unable to build on that score, managing just 145 in his other 10 innings in Surrey's title-winning 2022, he had already reinforced the belief within the ECB that he has the talent to become a star behind and in front of the stumps.
Another cab off the Whitgift School ranks, Smith is a tall keeper whose promise was apparent from a young age. He made his Surrey debut a week before his 18th birthday as an availability crisis forced him into action in a T20 against Middlesex at Lord's.
Further evidence of his immense talent came in England colours at the start of 2019. He made 90 and 104 in an Under-19 Test in Chattogram, and then cruised his way to 127 in his first first-class innings, against an MCC attack including Stuart Broad and Dom Bess in the Champion County fixture in Abu Dhabi. That was enough to earn him a prolonged run in the first team during a difficult season for Surrey, and he ended the Championship season batting as high as No. 3 such were their struggles. Runs proved harder to come by for Smith, but he acquitted himself well enough to suggest that there will be plenty more opportunities.
Smith first represented Surrey at Under-9 level, and played in every age-group team from that point on. His talent was so evident that he was often promoted several steps up, even playing alongside Tom Curran - five years his senior - in the U-17s weeks after his 12th birthday.
