Smith's looked really ordinary here.

So many superlatives from Langer. Is he always like this?

Yes. The benefits of transcendental meditation on full display.

 

[Burgey]

Smith in the "can't get it off the square so I'll either get out soon being stupid or reset, see it off and go a bit bonkers" phase of his innings here.

 

[GotSpin]

Not enough overrate chat from the comms

 

[Burgey]

I think this deck might actually be getting a little bit more two paced as it's slowly drying out in the tepid, lukewarm, hazy "sun" with a few divots in it from the morning session.

 

[Prince EWS]

Not enough overrate chat from the comms

It's not a slow over-rate, it's just a special military operation.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Bread and butter shot from Smith.

I can't believe it's not David Butter

Looking a really good wicket with a bit of two paced

 

[Burgey]

Don't know why Jadeja hasn't had a crack. Really good record against Australia in general and they need a change up atm.

 

[Gnske]

For real why does Rohit listen to Kohli on reviews and appeals. He's had a decade of watching him **** them up.

 

[Prince EWS]

Don't know why Jadeja hasn't had a crack. Really good record against Australia in general and they need a change up atm.

Yeah Siraj has bowled an extended spell of absolute crap after lunch here. It's increasingly odd. Shami was bowling really well so I could understand him staying on if he did, but Siraj's spell here makes no sense.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Yeah I think Head could've done something dumb against jadeja early on

 

[GotSpin]

Head looks seriously vulnerable to stuff at the ribs

 

[Prince EWS]

Yeah I think Head could've done something dumb against jadeja early on

He would've done something dumb against Jadeja better than Wade though.

 

[Saket1209]

They should look to up the overate a bit.

He's looking really ordinary for years now.
