Right, what England are doing here is utter dross. Spreading the field and basically allowing Steve Smith to just tap a single off the fifth ball and give England maximum one ball at Nathan Lyon.
And then that one ball is rarely even good.
Joe Root is having a low moment as captain right now

This is dire, dire captaincy from Root. Well though Smith has played, it is criminal to allow one batsman such a free ride without trying to get him out. England did this last year with Kohli and the tail and it didn't work then either!

If I was at Edgbaston, I wouldn't boo Steve Smith, I'd boo Joe Root's terrible tactics.

Whatever you think of Steve Smith,,,,the context of this test hundred must be appreciated for its sheer skill, tenacity and single-mindedness. Must rank very high on his list

Really wish people would stop booing Steven Smith. He's played brilliantly today for his 100.

Australia more than double their score from being 8 down. Hell of an effort

Sensational performance from centurion Steve Smith who has sprinted off the field to ensure England have to endure a nervy couple of overs.

Roy and Burns walk out to the middle.
Around 10 minutes of play remain today, Cummins to bowl the first over!
