Overpitched, marginally, and Smith's in such form that he just leans forward and drives it to the right of Inzamam at mid-off, who just lazily turns around and knows all he has to do is collect it from the ropes 16.2 Naved-ul-Hasan to Smith, FOUR, ho ho, make it three in a row, folks! Rana's misery continues as he tries the bouncer and gets no assistance from the pitch, Smith just pulls that well between midwicket and square leg for four more 16.1 Naved-ul-Hasan to Smith, FOUR, again he looks to get on top of Rana, and advances down the track to a shorter one, collecting it with one hand and finding the gap on the offside for another boundary 16.1 Naved-ul-Hasan to Smith, (no ball) FOUR, its a no-ball, to which Smith advances down the track and smokes that powerfully straight back down the ground for four, and thats his 50 16.1 Naved-ul-Hasan to Smith, 1 wide, who begins with a terrible wide way outside off stump, just couldnt control the slower one |
