2nd Investec Test: England vs Australia at Lord's

Watson axing divides opinion. Hayden says allrounder deserved shot at redemption, Healy disagrees

Brer Rabbit ?  :-\

Ali starts the proceedings post Tea, Smith takes a couple.

I assume an Aussie bunny, maybe a joke between the bowlers?

Close chance as Rogers almost defends one back onto his stumps. But no harm done, he is on 87. Aus 204/1

has any batsman spent more time in the middle and scored more runs than Steve Smith in the past two years?

Over the last two years, Steve Smith has scored the most runs in Test cricket (2236), followed by David Warner (2075), Younis Khan (2065), Joe Root (2008) and Kumar Sangakkara (1819). Smith has also faced the most deliveries over this period (3998 balls faced). Younis Khan (3870), Joe Root (3705) and Kane Williamson (3570) are the only other batsman to have faced 3500 balls or more.

If the batsmen run 4, how does a fielder do well to haul it back? Its pointless to haul it back.

century to smith
