Say what you like about Smith, but he always turns up.

Wonderful innings from Smith. Highly likely to be a match winning innings.

Credit to Smith for a patient innings in difficult conditions.

We’ve massively ballsed this up. Smith has done brilliantly and he’s turned this game.

Think its been pretty flat in fairness, but its a brilliant innings when the rest of the top order crumbles around him

I don’t get this. Poor tactically, we should be trying to get Smith out.

Think they are below par for the conditions, but probably have
way too many runs for our batting line up to replicate.

This has been a horiffic session.

It has been a shocker of a session. They could well get 300 here.

Bring some fucking fielders in!

If Jimmy is out then the medical testing needs some questions. Maybe it’s bad luck, but it doesn’t look great.

We could probably do with not taking the last wicket now. 20 minutes batting would most likely see us 2 wickets down

Yes you have to admire that. Not happy with Root though lifting the pressure when they were 122/8 by not having any slips for Smith.

No that was poor, and they need to learn from that.
