WT20 Updates! Smith's second fifty puts Australia on top

March 25, 2016 16:17

Australia: 155-4

Shane Watson has joined his captain at the crease.

Both Afridi (4-0-27-0) and Imad Wasim (4-0-31-2) are now through with their spells.

Wahab Riaz is back, replacing Wasim in the 16th over. Remember the way Riaz tormented Watson in the World Cup last year? Watson hits him for a boundary this time.

Amir to bowl the 17th over. First Smith hits him to the backward point fence, then Watson follows it up with a six over long-on, and a boundary over backward point, as 17 runs come off it. Australia cross the 150-run mark in the over.

A couple off Sami helps Smith complete a well-deserved half century, only his second in the format.
