Smith’s century was not an ordinary blow – it was a demolition at High Octane in the middle of chaos. Upon entering England in shock at 84/5, the pressure was enormous, but the young striker played as if he were unconscious from the dashboard. Smith has deployed a dam of attack attacks from the start, shooting, driving and launched with confidence.

Amazing sleeves of Jamie Smith. Ridiculous beat of this situation in which he entered #Engvind

Jamie Smith could play 100 tests for England, but that here today will remain his highest scoring until his retirement.
This bowling line can never take 20 counters even if they are lucky in these sleeves, wait until Carsa schooling a century.

Well beaten Jamie Smith. As an individual blacksmith, the antithesis of the way he plays. Calm, unpretentious and reserved but a friendly individual. On the ground, it’s a beast! A magnificent round.

Do you say what, after Kyle Verreynne, Jamie Smith and Rishabh Pant, made a serious argument for whom is the 2nd best guardian / striker of the tests.
