Smith was asked recently why he spends so long at the crease...
"I don't want to watch Cricket - it's bloody boring - I just want to be in the middle playing"
Still needs shooting mind but I'll settle for just 'Out'...

Last one is London so a win there and draw here means...... I really don't have a clue. We don't deserve to win so I am happy to say we werent good enough.

Exactly as Mick, sorry, Broccers said. Heroics of one player the likes of which I've never seen before in over 30 years of watching the game. No, that wasn't just one match

Its really weird they can't get Smith out. Surely hitting his neck is the way forward.

That's the thing though, they're not shit at all. World Cup winners etc. It's just that Australia, or rather Steve Smith, are / is better.
Steve Smith is the second highest ratest batsman of all time, after Don Bradman.

He has more test runs this year than anyone else... He was banned for 8 months of the year...
He's a machine
Even I'm beginning to understand how different ODI's and Test Cricket are. It's like 100m and the Steeplechase. Both competitions are held on running tracks, involve athletes, shorts, vests and trainers but they're very different sports.

Chuck in 20/20 too, fascinating differences given that they are just about the same game.
