3/402. Watson out, caught at deep mid wicket. India in trouble, now - they're getting into the tough part of this batting lineup. |

Yadav and Smith are neck and neck for top score in this innings. Yadav 0/119, with a couple of other Indian bowlers pressing for the ton. Ashwin is nervously bowling his way through the 90s. |

With 9 in the 2nd dig (assuming there is one), Smith would pass Punter's record for most runs by an Australian in a four-Test series against India. With 18, he would pass the Don's record for most runs by an Australian in a series against India. He is already equal with the Don in making four tons against India in a series. Although the Don scored his in a five-Test series, he batted only 6 times (not out twice), whereas Smith has come to crease 7 times (also 2 not outs). The Don also made a double century amongst his 4 centuries. |

Good stats, Pies.

Steve Smith has joined illustrious company - Jack Fingleton, Everton Weekes and Ken Barrington as the only batsmen in Test history to score first-innings centuries in four consecutive matches, and taking into account the Ashes last summer.
He now has six hundreds from his past seven first innings in Australia. _________________ Donny.
