Pak vs Aus: Watch Babar Azam bowling during first Test

RAWALPINDI: Pakistan's all-format skipper Babar Azam — a world-class batter — bowled Monday during the fourth day in the opening Australia-Pakistan Test at the Pindi Cricket Stadium.

The skipper bowled the last over on a penultimate day as Australia came close to matching Pakistan's first innings' total of 476-4, declared as the run-feast appeared to be heading for a dull draw. 

Babar conceded five runs in the 137th over.

• 136.4 — Babar Azam to Pat Cummins, no run

Meanwhile, a wet outfield caused by overnight rain not only wiped out the entire morning session on day four but also effectively dashed prospects of victory by either side in Australia's first Test in Pakistan in 24 years.

The touring side finished the penultimate day on 449-7, 27 runs behind, after four days of bat dominating ball on a flat track at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.

Marnus Labuschagne made 90 and Steve Smith contributed 78 in a strong batting performance by the tourists.

Mitchell Starc was on 12 when bad light stopped playing with skipper Pat Cummins on four at the other end.
