As one may recalled Jack Leach had recreated the single which led the English team to win their third Test match at Headingley by a one run. The series back then stood on 1-1. Talking about the current match, Smith obviously walked away with the Man of the Match award. “Winning key moments, a build-up of pressure, I'm not really sure [what made the difference]. Incredibly pleasing to get rewards for the hard work. It's been a good series, really enjoyed by time in the middle.
