oh and Warne is 93* at stumps
Who would have thought he would get two centuries in a season. He's made some handy contributions with the bat aside from those two knocks as well. Maybe he's Australia's answer to their top order troubles for the Ashes series? :p

What is Graeme Smith on? 180* off 149 balls with 6 sixes and 18 fours.....:wacko:
His on a typically batsman friendly Somerset pitch :D - The guy wont wont to leave at this rate, or they will catch him with a spade and a lorry :p

Smith's got 300 in a day, not sure how many times that has been done in FC cricket but it can't be all that many. His compatriot has come in for some serious tap as well, Willoughby going for 116 off 21 overs.

The specialist number 10 earlier in the season Ian Westwood obviously wasn't a one-off, didn't get a chance to bat but that's where he was scheduled to come in today against Derbyshire.

Graeme Smith = superb
Why?

For smashing a mediocre attack on a batting friendly pitch with small boundaries?

When he needed to stand up and be counted he moved down to number 5 in the order...

No, you said that he was superb, I just asked why and provided evidence to the contrary.
YES i said he is superb. I provided evidence into why he is superb as well - an instance like you did a series/2 series where he failed.

Do we want to get into another Smith debate? No because the defination of 'superb' is very judgemental.

You're a master of hyperbole.

who would have guessed that Warne would get 2 centuries in a season, let alone in his career? I sure didn't but I knew he had the ability to score a ton.
