Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan and Abdullah Shafique ensure Pakistan avoid a defeat; they finish on 443 for 7 chasing 506

Wow, What a thriller last hour! The test match gives sprung to Babar Azam was dismissed for 196 with a 12 overs left. Lyon took couple of more wickets were the Pakistan batters under pressure the calm Rizwan keep hardwork done by the skipper doesn't waste. The day started with Australian's needs 8 wickets to 1-0 in the series but they all managed took five wickets in a day. In first two sessions they take only one wicket each in the session. Babar stood tall, first he added 200+ partnership between Shafique was brilliant for Pakistan and rest of a day is managed by Babar and Rizwan to save the test match. Cummins and co tried so hard take wickets but some missed chances and feel some better in the field. Anyway it's 0-0 now we will see the final test wait for presentation....


Mohammad Rizwan: It was not an easy task to play five session to save the match against team like Australia. We all how good bowling attack they haven't had. We had plan for chase when I and Babar was batting,but ball was more old so it's more tough score runs so we keep it simple play session by session. Definitely there was more pressure towards last but I was very calm and clear. What I want say about Babar he is no 1 cricketer in the world. In test match survive for two days is not easy save test match like world class bowlers of Australia.


Pat Cummins | Australia captain: I think we had enough over but pitch was good bat on day 4 and 5. We created few chances but wouldn't grab the chances. Swepson was brilliant on debut but his justice what he bowl. Lyon was brilliant towards last, even we expect this from him.  For an team we batted two days this was before long time this gives more confidence. Lot of positive for this match and as well as in the series. As we bowled in tha day 3 with a reverse swing was a brilliant performance. And we were always awara of the game.  So really proud you boys 


 Babar Azam | Player of the Match: The plan was to play session by session and build a useful partnership. It's done through the help of (Shafique and Rizwan) with a useful contribution to the team. We took to take onus and mainly to build a partnership. Rizwan was brilliant performance to save test match. After a tea we play some postive cricket in the match. This knock is more useful for team that's it I want stay as much as balls I am faced
