Younis falls short of four centuries in a row as he is dismissed for 46 in Pakistan's second innings.

Misbah-ul-Haq equalled Sir Viv's record of fastest Test century as he reached his ton off 56 balls.

However Misbah score two in this match including the world record.

Shame he could not just do it at least one ball earlier and knock Vivian of his perch!

Misbah's aggression does not surprise me as I have seen him play some very attacking innings.

I believe he is the oldest International Cricketer but is he the eldest first class cricketer at the moment?

Does Pravin Tambe count? I think he is 43.

#35
I did think about him actually and yes he did play a FC game for Mumbai in January 2014 so he might be it!

Hoggy is older but not sure if he plays FC. He did play a T20I in 2014 though!

Indeed! Australia put up very little resistance losing their last 5 wickets for 8 runs. Pakistan move up to the third in the ICC Test rankings.

Pakistan now have 105 points.

Quote:Pakistan, which defeated Australia for its first series win in 20 years, has leapfrogged England, Sri Lanka and India into third position after the feat earned it seven ratings points.

This is Pakistan’s best Test rankings since it claimed third position in January 2007 following the series in South Africa, which the home side won 2-1.

In contrast, Australia has retained second position on the Test table, but, after conceding six ratings points, the gap with number-one ranked South Africa has opened to seven ratings points.

Australia had entered the series in second position on 123 ratings points, while Pakistan started in sixth position on 96 ratings points. As the rankings system is weighted to reflect this difference, the 2-0 series results means Pakistan has benefitted and Australia has suffered.

Pakistan will now take on New Zealand in a three-Test series, which starts on 9 November in Abu Dhabi, while Australia will lock horns with India in a four-Test series, which begins in Brisbane on 4 December.

Pakistan vaults into third position
