Babar finally found a stoic partner in Abbas and the last pair held out for 12 overs to frustrate the hosts. Abbas was the last man out for 23 shortly after tea on the fourth day when Pakistan were 120. Babar's half-century stood out in stark relief against a poor Pakistan batting effort. "I mimicked Mohammad Abbas' fuller lengths when he bowled against us in the first and second innings and it pretty much worked out for us." Abbas took 3-63 and 5-22 for Pakistan.
