		Smith had quickly settled in at the highest level, right from the moment he took Matthew Hayden's invective on the chin to score a battling half-century on his Test debut.
		Smith yielded to no man physically, but he could be brought to his knees by more insidious means.

		Smith himself had a wretched time with the bat; he did not score a single half century against the Australians in the entire tour.
		South African captain Graeme Smith is ‘braced for bullies‘ and given that his side lost to a weak West Australian state side by an innings, the Australian urge to kick sand in South African faces is strong.
