Labuschagne was the victim of an excellent set-up, and that set Broad on the way, with the Englishman famed for his ability to bowl match-changing spells. He caused Smith problems during his short stay at the crease, with a close lbw shout turned down due to a thin outside edge.
Soon after there was no question, with Smith nicking behind to spark raucous celebrations. The dismissal amounted to a 20 per cent swing on WinViz, with England edging into the favourite’s position.
