    Steve Smith

    Part of it probably related to how infrequently Smith will be playing ‘his game’ in the fourth innings. Australia will either be chasing (maybe with an eye on the clock) or surviving, and so Smith will have to do something other than his preferred method of playing.

    Surely there haven’t been that many drawn series.

    Do Australia understand DRS? Because they’re ****ing dreadful with it.

    How does Archer average nearly 30 with the bat in FC?

    Tim Paine has gotten away with murder after a brutal decision to bowl.

    He’s the Shane Watson of this series.

    The batting has been about the same once you exclude Smith, IMO.

    5th Test at The Oval, London

    Cummins has sent down 48 overs in the last 4 days, and was starting to look pretty tired. It will obviously depend on how he feels over the next few days, but given that the Ashes have been retained, it may be worth giving him the chance to put his feet up and enjoy the celebrations.

    **** it. Smith should just open. Give him time to get to 402*

    4th Test at Old Trafford, Manchester

    I know Jos done pretty well today, but I do wonder how Curran would have gotten on instead of Buttler in the ‘spare’ role at 7.

    All joking aside, it is starting to look dark.

    Light won’t hold for 21 overs.

    Christ, that stayed low. This is why Day 5 chases are supposed to be difficult!

    That’s it, Jofra. Steal the strike.
