Tongue to Smith, out Caught by Buttler!! Tongue deceives Smith with a slower ball. 76mph, pace off and into the deck on probably seeing the batter step out of the crease. Smith, after coming down the track, moves leg-side to waft it away over the infield on the off-side. Early into the shot and gets a thin top-edge that's been pouched by the keeper. Smith c Buttler b Tongue 26(22) [4s-4 6s-1]

Sonny Baker to Smith, no run, big lbw appeal from Baker, the umpire shakes his head in denial. Smith is rooted in his crease and gets squared by this pacy in-angler that seams away. The ball beats the outside edge and raps him on the back leg adjacent to the stumps. Ball-tracking shows it to be going over the stumps
