Misbah hits fastest century

(MENAFN- Arab News) ABU DHABI: Australia has six wickets left to survive the final day of the second test against Pakistan finishing 143-4 at stumps Sunday and chasing an unlikely target of 603 after Pakistan captain Misbah-ul Haq matched the record for the fastest test century and broke that of the quickest fifty. At the end of the fourth day Australia trailed Pakistan by 460 runs with the pitch expected to deteriorate Monday. The 40-year-old Misbah reached his century in 56 balls matching the record set by West Indies great Vivian Richards against England in 1986.
