Pakistan's first-innings total of 579 is also the third-highest by any team to end up on the losing side in Test cricket.

4.54 Run rate across the four innings in Rawalpindi, the highest for any Test match that lasted 2000-plus balls. The previous highest was 4.17 in the 2015 Test between Australia and New Zealand in Brisbane.
