Another century, how good is the world's number 1 ranked batsman?
Smith's 16th Test hundred has arrived in just his 48th Test, at a rate of exactly one every three matches.

Smith
In reply to Runs
You cannot go by average these days. Smith is a good batter, but he is still not good enough to make the Waugh and Ponting era teams- so put this in perspective when judging him.
In reply to Runs
Runs in England, runs in NZ, Runs in RSA, Runs in OZ, I know he has 90s in India and UAE. I will make a sound judgement after the upcoming OZ tour of India.
In reply to Emir
According to whom?
In reply to Runs
Smith is a top class batsman ...and would be so in any era.
I expect tons of runs from him in the future.
He is the real deal.
In reply to Narper
People don't like him because he looks ungainly.
Shiv looked ungainly too and hence never got the respect he deserved.
In reply to Emir
You are an idiot.
In reply to CricketLuva4
So he is not tested under West Indian conditions against our mighty 4-prang yet?
In reply to Kay
Who are these warriors that constitute our '4 prang'?
Why is that you wankers are ready to ejaculate as soon as an Aussie or an Englishman performs in home conditions?
Yet, when it comes to an Indian.. You make all sort of dances to discredit him..
Hypocrites.

Come on Wenky Babu....only some wankers do dat
BTW...I put Weerat ahead of Smith and the rest...Weerat is on an upward curve..and climbing rapidly....only injury or a bollywood woman or other natural disaster can stop him

In reply to Narper
If bollywood women are natural disasters then i know how i want to go.
In reply to Emir
Where do you come up with such nonsense? His stats are there for everyone to see.
In reply to Narper
Smith is the second greatest batsman of all time after Bradman. It amazes me how these former cricketers and so called pundits have managed to elevate Root, Williamson and Kohli ahead of Smith.
Smith's numbers are considerably better than those three lads, all of whom are very good batsmen in their own right.
George Headley played 22 Test matches, and Sir Donald Bradman played 52, so don't give me any business about Smith not being on the scene long enough.
In reply to Emir
Smith will walk into Waugh's team and replace Steve's brother, Mark.
He will replace Damien Martyn in Ponting's team.
In reply to Narper
He's with a Bollywood woman, and everytime he fails, half of India blames her. He seems happy being with her, even though I think that he can do a lot better. But who the fack am I to judge.
In reply to Devin
He seems happy being with her, even though I think that he can do a lot better
are you advocating for yourself?
At least he not piling dem up on dem subcontinent curry featherbed dustbowls like dat flat track bulley Kholi.
In reply to carl0002
u know Kohli made more runs in Aus the last time he was there than in this series right?
In reply to cricketmygame
Carl is a cu#t who is most likely a disciple of Burnham.
In reply to cricketmygame
Nah. I just think if you're rich, successful, and a celebrity, you should get the best you possibly can, especially if you choose to go the route of being with a fellow celebrity.
