Australian all-rounder helps put his side in control of the fifth Ashes Test.
Steve Smith scored his maiden Test century with a glorious six straight down the ground, a moment he described simply as “unbelievable.”
The batting all-rounder launched into a booming straight drive from the bowling of part-timer Jonathan Trott as he brought up his first Test ton in the most dramatic possible.
The 24-year-old said he probably would not have taken such an aggressive route if it had been a full-time bowler, especially given the memories of his 89 at Old Trafford still fresh in his mind.
Australia enter day three of the fifth and final Ashes Test of the English summer well on top with the Three Lions still 460 runs behind.
