Babar-Abdullah Shafique duo pulling their version of Dravid-Laxman here against same opponent Australia. If they successfully chase down this mammoth total or pull out draw from this situation then this would dent Australia's reputation and ego and increase Pakistan's stature more in the Test cricket. We shouldn't forget that in recent time Australian team failed to close the game when opponent bats in 4th inning.
3 recent iconic test match, where Aussie failed royally
- Headingley test against England, English were 9 down (Ben stokes).
- SCG test against India, 2 injured batter Vihari-Ashwin pulled off great escape
- Gaba test against India, well everyone knows what happened there.
- Karachi -
Result in progress
Ladies and gents!
We have another great escape and another 4th inning (5th day) failure of Aussie bowlers. Every time they were supposed to win or were in winning position but now it looks like more of a curse which started in Headingley, even new beautiful skipper patty couldn't do anything.
Well done Abdullah-Baba-Rizwan..
With this draw, point table is looking more competitive. Pakistan and Australia are eating each other points, other teams won't mind it. Having said that Draw (4 points) is better than losing a test (zero points).
