Test- Pak vs SL at Sharjah
ODI- Pak vs WI at Dhaka
T20- Pak vs SA at Colombo
 
Test: Pakistan vs England Dubai 2012
ODI: Pakistan vs India Asia Cup 2014
T20: Not many but the India vs Australia match in the 2016 WT20 was good.

These are only the ones I remember from the top of my head.
 
Gonna list recent ones:

Test - NZ vs Aus Hobart 2011
ODI - NZ vs SA WC 2015 Semi Final
T20 - Australia vs Pakistan WT20 2010 Semi Final
 
Matches I have watched

90s

Test - India vs Pakistan Chennai 98
ODI - SA vs Australia Edgbaston 99
T20 - N/A


2000s

Test - India vs Australia Eden Gardens 2001
ODI - this will be a tie sorry. India vs England Lords 2002 and SA vs Aus Joburg
T20 - India vs Pakistan Joburg 2007 (not in terms of quality but the game that made T20 a legit format)


2010s

Test - Australia vs SA WACA 2016 maybe?
ODI - NZ vs SA Auckland 2015
T20 - India vs Australia Mohali 2016 (in terms of control, arguably the greatest chase knock ever in LOI)
 
Has to be the Dhaka Test - almost every night watched till 6 AM in working week.

Among neutral matches, many - one I'll pick is the Bridgetown Test between Lara & Australia.

It had everything.
 
England vs Australia ashes test 2005
South Africa vs New Zealand World Cup semi 2015
South Africa vs Australia 434 run chase
Pakistan vs England lords 2016
Pakistan vs England oval 2016
 
I'd probably go for PAK vs AUS T20, 2010.

There have been many, a lot of which have obviously been better than that game but that's the first thing that comes up to my mind.

ODI- Pakistan Vs South Africa 2015 World Cup
T20-Rajistan Royals vs Chenai Super Kings Sohail Tanvir special, Islamabad United final and Pakistan Vs India 2007 final

But that 2015 world cup match is something i will never forget. THe way we defended that low total was just crazy

Tests: England v Australia at Edgbaston in 2005.

ODIs: Pakistan v India at Karachi in 2004 when we nearly chased 350.

T20s: Not many spring to mind, maybe the 09 WC final for obvious reasons.
 
Probably has to be that epic match between SA and Aus, when both made 400+.
 
The one where we chased 300 to win in UAE vs Lankans. The one where Hafeez, Ajmal and Akmal took us to WC Semis. The one where Gul smashed sixes to win it against Saffers.
 
Test: England v Pakistan @ Lords 2016
ODI: New Zealand vs. South Africa 2015 World Cup Semi-Final
T20: Sri Lanka v Pakistan 2nd T20I 2015 (the one where Afridi did well and Anwar Ali went crazy to get a comeback victory)
