00:02He hasn't missed that one now.
00:11Nicely driven through the onside.
00:13Rifle just out of pitching.
00:15He's a fine driver obviously.
00:19That's one of them.
00:22Rifle has followed up a half volley with another half volley.
00:27It's well played into the gap and that will run away down towards the boundary.
00:32Hayden run, get to it, into the rope it goes.
00:34Nice placement there from Smith.
00:39It's a good 15, made under pressure by Robin Smith.
00:56That's a magnificent shot off the back foot.
01:00It's over the top.
01:02That's a superb stroke from Smith.
01:04He goes to 90.
01:05Picking Rifle up a half volley somewhere about middle and way.
01:09Oh, what a shot.
01:10What a shot!
01:11Just a fraction short.
01:13He beats Hayden.
01:14A gem.
01:15He goes to 95.
01:18That just has to be the best of the day from Robin Smith.
01:24Whoops.
01:25He gets an answer to go to 99.
01:27Sure, he hit that.
01:29An attempt with York.
01:30Yes.
01:31He tried to charge the big foul.
01:32He was lucky to get away with that.
01:33But it's raced away for four.
01:35Smith goes to 99.
01:37Good move comes in.
01:39Straight two.
01:40Gets through.
01:41That's 100 for Robin Smith.
01:43A beauty.
01:44Carrying England on his back in this inning so far.
01:46Four for 187.
01:48Smith 101.
01:49A fine knock.
01:53Magnificent innings by Robin Smith.
01:55He had to play very carefully at the start.
01:58England were in deep trouble.
01:59And now he's in devastating destructive form.
02:02And the Prime Minister is enjoying it.
02:05He's glad he's having a day out at the cricket.
02:07And so is Robin Smith.
02:1012 fours.
02:12Drives to one arm.
02:13He's in good touch.
02:14They look for two rifles.
02:15A fieldsman.
02:15They're taking him on.
02:17That's excellent running.
02:19103 to Smith.
02:20Smith's fourth one day in the National Century.
02:25Gets Nick.
02:26Goes all the way.
02:27Beats the diving heeling.
02:30Here's hands on heads.
02:31But Robin Smith chanting his arm there.
02:35How's that going?
02:36It's going over mid wicket.
02:37And it's going well.
02:38Hayden won't get that.
02:39He's whipped rifle away.
02:41An arrogant stroke.
02:42Cool value though.
02:47Where's that?
02:48That's in the air.
02:48That's six.
02:49That's a ripper.
02:50Over she goes.
02:52Beautiful shot.
02:57Robin Smith treating Paul rifle like a club bowler.
03:01Straight back over his head.
03:05What a beautiful shot that is.
03:07Full face of the bat.
03:08Sails right over the ropes.
03:10Into the crowd.
03:14Chipped that in the air.
03:15Could be out.
03:16Tim May.
03:17No.
03:17Four mores.
03:18And it's the highest score for Robin Smith.
03:21He moves to 135 and one did at Nationals.
03:24Tim May is not the most athletic for us.
03:26But it was clear of him anyway.
03:27But it was beautifully struck.
03:31That's high.
03:32And that's six more.
03:34Twenty off the over for Paul rifle.
03:37Including two massive sixes.
03:39He moves to 141.
03:43He's had a go at that one.
03:44And that could be a six as well.
03:46Yes it is.
03:48No it's not.
03:49It's just bounced short.
03:50Well that brings up his 150.
03:51And he's only the second England player.
03:54To have scored 150 in a one day international.
03:58David Gar being the other one.
04:00What a knock.
04:01Robin Smith.
04:05The wicket he goes.
04:06He's flicked that in the air as well.
04:08Down it goes.
04:09And bounces twice into the fence.
04:10At deep mid wicket.
04:12And what an innings this has been from Robin Smith.
04:15He'll be cheered off this ground.
04:17I suspect he'll get a standing ovation.
04:19In fact they're on their feet now.
04:21Everyone in this ground.
04:22Out of their seats.
04:24Cheering off this man who's rectified the situation for England.
04:28And boy will he be happy about that.
04:30What an innings.
04:32The highest one day score ever for England.
04:36Played by Robin Smith today against Australia.
04:40So in he goes.
04:41Give himself a quick shower.
04:44And they'll be out on the field.
04:45And the Prime Minister too.
04:46Up on his feet.
04:49Hearing Robin Smith.
