Steve Smith has made a great comeback to Test cricket

I don't understand the hype Steve Smith gets as a T20 batsman. He has poor numbers in both T20Is and IPL and yet manages to play one-down for RR as an overseas batsman, ahead of some better alternatives!

Don’t worry RR fans. will play through and draw this match for us.

Steve Smith's laboured innings of 62 * not out of 53 balls ,is not upto T20 standards, and because of he not accelerating, could be the reason RR lose the match .RR needs minimum 155 on this wicket. Stokes also can't score from ball 1. RR miss powerful strikers.

Someone remind that it's a T-20 match and not ODI !

Steve Smith played a beautiful innings, considering the pitch condition this 139 might be enough, Yesterday Mumbai defended 136
