It's not a dead rubber. The new Test Championship means every test Victory counts.

What can you say about Smith other than the guy is ****ing brilliant and that I wish he was English. His eye and his timing are the best I have ever seen and probably ever will in my lifetime. The guy is a genius with a cricket bat.

Brilliant batsman Smith. But he's still a cheat. Overall Australia deserved it. We have been hanging on in most of the tests.
