Australia vs England, 5th Test - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Boland to Brook, out Caught by Smith!! Edge and taken! 136.3kph, short of a good length that straightens a bit off the deck. Brook wafts his bat at it trying to steer it backward of square on the off-side and nicks off to first slip. Could have perhaps gone harder at it. Outside edge to the left of first slip and Smith shows good reflexes to snaffle it with both hands. Still no Ashes hundred for Brook. The 169-run stand has been broken.
