185 - Marcus Labuschagne's highest first-class score and his maiden Test century. In his last eight Test innings, Labuschagne has five scores of fifty or more. Only five batsmen from Australia have made bigger Test scores against Pakistan. Labuschagne's 185 is also the third-highest score at No. 3 for Australia since Ricky Ponting's retirement.
3 - Test innings in which Yasir Shah has conceded 200 runs or more. He is the only bowler to concede 200 on more than two occasions. Two of the three innings have been in Australia, while the other was in Manchester. Saqlain Mushtaq and Vinoo Mankad are the other two bowlers who have conceded 200-plus runs on two occasions. The 205 runs conceded by Yasir are the most by a bowler at the Gabba, going past the 194 by Mushtaq Ahmed in 1999.
436 - Runs scored by Australia's top three, their second-most in a home Test and sixth-highest ever. Unfortunately, both David Warner and Labuschagne missed out on double-centuries.
4 - Bigger totals conceded by Pakistan against Australia in Tests than the 580 at the Gabba. In the six Tests Pakistan have played at the Gabba, they have conceded 512, 509, 463, 575, 429 and 580 in the first innings.
2006 - The last time Pakistan bowled more than 157 overs in an innings outside Asia. This was against England at Lord's. In their last four Tests in Australia, Pakistan have bowled an average of 141 overs in the first innings.
7 Dismissals for Steven Smith against Yasir Shah in six Tests. Only Stuart Broad has dismissed Smith on more occasions (eight times) than Yasir. In nine innings against Yasir, Smith has scored 191 runs from 382 balls at an average of 27.28.
296 - Balls faced by David Warner, the most in an innings in his Test career so far. His previous highest was 286 balls, while scoring 253 against New Zealand in Perth.
22 - Balls bowled by Pakistan's fast bowlers from around the wicket on day three to Warner. Warner scored one run and was dismissed. In all of day two, Pakistan's quicks only bowled 25 balls to him from that angle.
