If Smith gets in, in the game, he plays very attacking shots so stick a few men on the boundary and you'll get him! (at least thats what worked for me 
)

Lee Fires As South Africa's Reply Begins
Brett Lee took the crucial wicket of South African captain Graeme Smith only 2 balls before the lunch interval as the home side began their first innings, chasing Australia's total of 325.
The 14 over spell before the lunch break was seen as crucial to both sides and it appeared to be going to plan for the home side, who had not scored quickly as they ammassed only 25 runs in the 14 over hour. But it was the quick and lethal spell from Lee who rattled both Smith and Gibbs leading up to lunch. The breakthrough finally came with only 2 balls left in the session when a quick rising delivery caught Smith off-guard and he attempted to fend the ball away with a half hearted hook shot that flew straight to Justin Langer at backward square leg.
(Lee fires up as his pace beats Smith and Langer takes a simple catch)
Lee's 1/9 from 7 overs showed he is still a force in world cricket with the new ball and his combination with the always consitant Glenn McGrath 0/16 from 7 proved successful. The eyes will be now on who McGrath can pick up for his 500th test wicket and on the Kallis Vs Warne battle that has been building up for some time now.
Hour Breakdown - 1/35 (1 Wicket 35 Runs)
12.00 - 1.00
H. Gibbs 14* (45)
G. Smith 8* (38)
J. Kallis 0* (1)
B. Lee 1/9 (7.0)
G. McGrath 0/16 (7.0)
Who will McGrath collect for his 500th test wicket (to be only the second fast bowler and second Australian to complete the record)
