1000 runs against India and 50 for Head.
Smith has 4 boundaries from 182 balls faced in this series (the 4 in this innings) and his straight drive down the ground was his first controlled boundary with the other two being edges (from Ric Finlay on ABC Grandstand).

Reckon that's one of Travis' very best Test tons. It was the most assured I can ever recall in his first 20 balls..
I always think he is a walking wicket early on, but not today.

Also, what a classic Test match partnership. Head on the move allowing Smith to grind it out and increasingly look back in form.
In the context of the series... HUGE partnership.

funny how well Smith is batting this innings when he dials down the trigger-movements (still has them) and goes back to what has generally worked his whole career and the runs start to come back.
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

India have no part timers to bowl a few overs? Injury to Deep is really going to hurt them.
