What was the previous record for a 3 match series?

 

[Syed1]

Hope he reaches the 500 run mark in this match. Need 108 more runs.

There are many ahead of Azhar in that list. MoYo scored 665 runs in that 3 matches Test series against Windies back in 2006. He scored 4 centuries and a fifty in 5 innings that includes two scores of 190s

Means Azhar has a good chance in the second innings to beat that.

Hoping he can do it in the second innings.

Would have probably done it in this innings if it wasn't for that ATG.

At least from now,PPers can hope to get out of the continous onslaught of a poster about a mediocre batsman being pakistan''s GOAT in aussieland, to which we all have been subjected ..

 

[Pete Rose]

Just so that the other are clear. Most of the other guys on that list played 5 test series

Yes.

OP should make that clear

 

[Slog]

[Hasan123]

Pakistans new goat down under, in our next tour to Australia [MENTION=132916]Junaids[/MENTION] will be calling for Azhar to be on the plane if he isn't selected.

 

[TalentSpotterPk]

Superb stuff by Azhar.

Hope he breaks Williamson's record. InshaAllah

Mashallah... what a series that was (and a year even!) for the greatest test batsman for Pak EVER... the one and only MoYo....

Mind boggles at what would have happened had MoYo continued playing for 7 more years where in he would had a decent chance of uprooting Tendulkar's record of 15K test runs.... man

and people calling "Smiling Man" as a team player and a "great servant"...
Of who, i wonder...himself maybe, heck definitely not for Pak cricket.

i literally cried blood, looking at the replay of that run-out on Willow, and that LOOK of hopelessness and shrug of the shoulder, from Azhar...

Damn the "Smiling Man". If anything he should be given a 1 match suspended ban and not allowed in the next home series
