AUS vs PAK: Aamer Jamal records highest score by No. 9 Pakistan batter in Australia

During the third Test in Sydney on Wednesday, Aamer Jamal broke the record previously held by Wasim Bari, scoring the highest tally by a Pakistan batter at No. 9 in Tests in Australia. Bari achieved a score of 72 runs from 113 balls in Adelaide in 1972. As Pakistan teetered on seven for 220, Jamal steadied the ship and scored an impressive 82 runs from just 97 balls. This helped Pakistan reach a respectable first innings score of 313. Jamal's performance, which included nine fours and four sixes, also marked his maiden Test half-century.

His score is the third-highest ever achieved by a Pakistan No. 9 batter in Tests. The record is held by Asif Iqbal who scored a century (146 off 244) against England at The Oval in 1967. Jamal also formed part of an 86 run partnership with Mir Hamza (seven off 43), which is the second-highest 10th wicket partnership for Pakistan in Australia.
