Steven Smith is quick to jump down the track to AShwin, playing it down the ground to long on for one. Starc has been very positive this morning as he flicks Ashwin before square on the leg side for a boundary.

Ishant still getting some reverse but he is a bit too straight. The ball drifts on Smith's pads who flicks it through square leg for his first boundary of the day that takes his score to 65.

Smith batting on 66 from 144 balls, Starc on 30 from 38 balls.
