Sydney Cricket Ground: Australia stand-in skipper Steve Smith reflected on his 37th Test hundred after posting a score of 129 not out at the end of Day 3, and credited his home venue, Sydney Cricket Ground, for becoming the second batter on the all-time list of Ashes Test runs with 3663, only behind the legendary Don Bradman (5028).

Smith brought up his 100 after running three off a shot to fine leg off the bowling of Jocob Bethell. This was Smith's 13th Ashes ton, with only Don Bradman (19) producing more. It also marked Smith's first ton of this series.
