Rizwan’s magnificent innings of 104 off 177 balls helped Pakistan rescue a draw from an improbable position. Earlier, Pakistan’s captain, Babar Azam played an innings of a lifetime as he scored 196 runs off 425 balls to defy the Australian bowling unit.
Azam was supported brilliantly by the young opener, Abdullah Shafique, who scored 96 runs off 305 balls in a marathon innings.
While Babar earned the plaudits for his magnificent knock, Rizwan’s innings was just as crucial as he steadied the ship after the captain’s departure.
Check out Rizwan’s incredible knock:
