Tom Curran to Zampa, out Zampa Run Out!! 1 run completed. Zampa smashes it to deep mid-wicket. He wanted a double but Behrendorff wasn't keen for it at all. He showed no interest in running.

Tom Curran to Smith, out Caught&Bowled!! And that ends a magnificent innings from Steve Smith. He has been exceptional today. Tom Curran got his yorker spot-on and Smith failed to get his bat down in time. It lobs up off the toe-end and Tom Curran takes the catch and appeals. The on-field umpires weren't entirely sure and the decision was sent upstairs to check whether it is a bump ball. It was not and Smith will have to depart.
