Smiths an excellent batter - it’s been a great series and I back us to knock them off.  Still get frustrated by the with some of the shot choices. 

I get the argument that it’s how some of them play but we were cruising and have now invited the pressure ourselves. 

On the flip side though if Brook doesn’t play his way we’re never in the position to win it. I think it’s fine, the shot selection was logical he just got the execution wrong. That happens, but his enterprise, in combination with Root’s brilliance, has given us a very good chance.
