Commentary

  • 52.3
    Chris Woakes c Steven Smith b Pat Cummins 37 (54)

    OUT! Caught. Pat Cummins to Chris Woakes. Off cutter short, outside off stump on the back foot Fended, Spliced to second slip, by Smith. There it is! Cummins rolls his fingers across it as he fires it into the surface. The ball grips, holds up, and Woakes doesn't know what to do with it. He ends up poking the bat at the ball, and chips it into the hands of second slip.

    Australia have done a thoroughly professional job today, and sealed the victory with ease. A massive win for the visitors, who go 1-0 up in the series. Pat Cummins and Nathan Lyon combined to run through the England batting line up, with no one in particular contributing massively for the home side. All of this wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for one paritcular man, though. Steve Smith with two sensational hundreds set up the game for the Aussies. He was the star performer across the five days. Worrying signs for England, who seem very tired, and there is still four matches left to go!

    The teams head to Lord's for the second Test, which begins next Wednesday. Will Australia extend their lead? Or can England level it up?

    OUT! Caught. Nathan Lyon to Stuart Broad. Off break length ball, outside off stump on the front foot defending, outside edge to first slip, by Smith.

Smith isn't going to drop them.
