From Yesterday ...

STEVE Smith scored his fifth Test century and saluted his fallen Australia teammate Phillip Hughes in a way that will be remembered for years to come.

Smith clipped the first ball after lunch for two to bring up his hundred against India.

He jogged away from the wicket and pointed towards the “408” — Hughes’ Test cap number — painted on the Adelaide Oval playing surface and then raised his bat and looked skywards in tribute to the batsman.

The photograph below captured the moment perfectly.
