I think Smith will hit triple hundred tommorow.

By the looks of it tomorrow Mitchell Marsh would get past Smith's score quickly. We need some all rounders like Marsh and Stokes. Pandya is neither a reliable batsmen nor a reliable 5th bowler. Although his acrobatic fielding and fitness is outstanding. If he can improve his batting and bowling techniques he would be our wild card player in overseas conditions.

Australia will win the series 5-0 in my opinion
