00:23stays away and with that boundary brings it again
00:27stepping out get to the pitch of the ball and bottom hand coming into play it

00:37link much better from Smith smothering the spin lovely timing shot of the morning
00:51yeah that's a classy shot they walk Mendes wants getting against the turn
00:57wants to get one to spin sharply get through that back pad
01:03same shot from the previous over same degree of difficulty playing against the spin Smith moving
01:19through the gears now beautiful yeah that's all class again from Steve
01:24Smith likes the length beautiful hands through the line of the ball
01:35well negotiated as well oh that's getting in on the act with the reverse don't say
01:45that's how often from Stephen Smith runs away before as well extremely well played
01:55right over the bounce changes position after the ball's been released so there's nothing much
02:01that the voter can do about it Smith up and over the top right contact all the way
02:16this feed
02:19always making sure that if he goes over the top is going the distance
02:31that goes down to the boundary 40 seconds what a superb knock
02:42so difficult to set a field because he's got shots all around the park and he'll surprise you
02:49when he accesses those areas
02:50this time gets a bit of it and that's the invitation he wanted
03:01toss it up the dramesh mendes but the length also way fuller steve smith sees it
03:06see how he makes batting look easy now that was given a little bit of weight i'll tell you not much
03:20but he picked that gap an extra cover this is very good batting and smith now starting to move a little
03:27bit quicker yep tossed up again right underneath the eyes
03:41that's a safe option two is a call by stephen and it comes back
