100th over: Australia 417-4 (Smith 74, Maddinson 16)<br />

He’s bowled 100 no balls in his last 16 Tests and now Wahab returns for the 100th over of this<br />

Australian innings, switching to the member’s end and replacing Amir. Maddinson drops one to leg<br />

and scampers through for a single, and is beginning to look like he’s set for some consolation runs<br />

here. How much do we read into a 70-odd here, if he gets it? Probably not much.<br />

Smith has scored at better than a run-a-ball in his 3 innings facing Wahab and has only been<br />

dismissed by him once #AUSvPAK<br />

99th over: Australia 415-4 (Smith 73, Maddinson 15)<br />

This is basically centre wicket practice for the Australian pair now, and the only man on the ground<br />

showing any great enthusiasm for the game is Yasir, who continues to bound in like Abdul Qadir’s<br />

hyperactive nephew. His over costs only a single to Smith, who is sleep walking his way towards<br />

three figures.<br />
