Australia v Pakistan - 2nd Test: Day 5

In the early days of Bangladesh cricket, they were a team against whom batsmen loved to play since there was always the prospect of scoring big against a mediocre bowling attack. However, things were not as rosy when Pakistan played Bangladesh at Multan back in 2003 and won the game by only 1 wicket due to the heroics of Inzamam-ul-Haq. Chasing 261 for victory, they were in trouble from the outset reduced to 78 for 3.

However, disaster really struck when Younis Khan, one of the stars of the side, was run out without even facing a delivery. He was a player, who could have made the chase a far more comfortable affair but his dismissal for Diamond Duck tightened the noose. In the end, Pakistan prevailed by the skin of their teeth.
