Labuschagne eyes Test century No.6 as England search for wickets | tomdecent
It wasn’t the most clinical way to do it - through the slips from an outside edge - but it’s triple figures no less.Smith has a brilliant Ashes record - 2830 runs at an average of 64.31. He missed out at the Gabba, dismissed for 12, and will be incredibly determined to make a big score in Adelaide where he has a great record also.
In case you’ve forgotten just how prolific Smith has been in Australia and England Tests, here’s a quick recap.Jimmy Anderson has the ball in his hand for England. It’s just nine overs old but as Brett Lee points out, England “wasted” their chance last night to make early inroads. I didn’t think England bowled too badly under lights. If Jos Buttler didn’t drop a sitter late in the day, things could have been a lot different with a new batsman at the crease under lights.
Anderson’s first three balls fly past the off stump. It will be intriguing to see whether England attack Australia’s stumps more, or continue with their ploy to bowl plenty of short stuff. Smith hits a crisp cover drive for four to get his day underway. Anderson looks a little sore after bowling 18 overs on day one.
