Malik's productive return, a rare rearguard effort

96* Runs by Shoaib Malik in this match - the second-highest by a Pakistan No. 5 and the fourth-highest by any Pakistan batsman batting at No. 5 or lower in a chase. No Pakistan No. 5 has ever made a century in an ODI chase. Ijaz Ahmed got the closest with 98* against South Africa in 1994.

93.20 Malik's batting average in ten ODIs he's played since his international return earlier in the year. He has made 466 runs including one century and three fifties. Before 2015, he had last played for Pakistan in 2013 when he averaged 22.55 from 12 ODIs.

There are only three instances of teams getting bigger contributions from their last four wickets in ODIs after being six down for less than 100. The record is held by Africa XI, who added 206 runs for their last four wickets against Asia XI. Before this match, the most Pakistan had tallied for their last four wickets was 172 against Australia in 2001.
