A Smith century already feels like an inevitability.

I can't remember a player who scores so often from awkward positions.
There doesn't seem a lot going on with the bowling.

Why's Broad off the pitch?

Farokh Engineer, a fine cricketer from my youth and the Lanky one day side of the late 60’s and 70’s

Don’t think it really matters, to be honest. Old Trafford is never a 3 day result pitch, no matter what. Can see it ending in a one innings each draw to be honest.

Surprised that needed a review. Did the ump think he caught an edge?

Yes that’s why I was surprised we needed a review. Nowhere near his bat and right on the stumps. Looked clear

Great use of the reviews by England today
