3388 Runs scored by Azhar Ali in Tests in the last five years, the most for any Pakistan batsman. He has scored more runs than Misbah-ul-Haq (2933) and Younis Khan (3383).
1001 Runs scored by Younis Khan in Sri Lanka, making him the first Pakistan batsman to hit 1000 runs in Sri Lanka. The only other overseas batsman to have scored 1000 Test runs in Sri Lanka is Sachin Tendulkar (1155).
9 Years since Younis Khan was last run out in a Test - versus West Indies in Karachi in 2006. He was run out after scoring three runs in the first innings of this Test.
6 Times Younis has been run out in Tests, the third most for any Pakistan batsman. The only Pakistan players to be run out more often are Javed Miandad (8) and Wasim Akram (7).
7 Consecutive 300-plus first innings scores for Sri Lanka against Pakistan at home before failing to do so today. Sri Lanka were bowled out for 278 in the first innings of this Test.
2 Visiting bowlers who have taken three or more five-wicket hauls during a Test series in Sri Lanka - Shane Warne and Yasir Shah. Yasir has taken a five-wicket haul in each of the three Tests this series - 7 for 76 in the first, 6 for 96 in the second and 5 for 78 in the third.
10 50-plus scores for Sarfraz Ahmed in Tests, making him the fourth Pakistan keeper to post 10 or more 50-plus scores. The other keepers to do this are Kamran Akmal (18), Moin Khan (18) and Imtiaz Ahmed (14). Sarfraz's batting average is by far the best among these four.
