Steve Smith talked about his ‘dream comeback’ to Test cricket after scoring a second century at Edgbaston on Sunday.

Australia declared on 487-7 on day four of the first Ashes Test to set England a target of 398 to win.

“I’ve never doubted my ability but it’s kind of a dream comeback in a way,” said Smith.

“To be able to score two hundreds in a match, in the first Ashes Test match, it’s something I’ve never done in any form of cricket in my life so it’s incredibly special. And it’s special to put us in the position that we’re in now going into day five.”

The hosts finished the day 13 without loss after seven overs.
