ABU DHABI: It seems Pakistani batsman are finding it difficult to score a century against Australia with three becoming victim to the nervous 90s in the second Test.

During Pakistan’s second innings, Babar Azam fell on 99, missing out on his maiden Test century. The middle-order batsman fell leg before to Mitchell Marsh.

Two Pakistani batsmen also faced a similar fate in the first innings. Opener Fakhar Zaman who made his Test debut was caught leg before by Labuschange for 94. Skipper Sarfraz Ahmed was caught by Siddle on Labuschange’s bowling also on 94.

Pakistan and Australia drew the first Test match played in Dubai.
