Pakistan square series
Sunday, 25 July 2010
RTA SpeedBlitz Blue's allrounder, Steven Smith, made 77 in Australia's second innings
Pakistan won the Second Test against Australia at Headingley overnight (July 24) by three wickets to level the two match series 1-1.
Starting the day needing just 40 runs to win with seven wickets in hand, the Pakistanis suffered a minor hiccup with four more wickets falling quickly.
However there was no repeat of the miracle from the Sydney Test earlier this year, with a streaky single to Umar Gul securing their first Test win over Australia in 15 years.
For Australia Doug Bollinger and Ben Hilfenhaus both took three second innings wickets with Mitchell Johnson picking up one.
Australia was always on the back foot in this Test after being bowled out for just 88 on day one.
They bounced back in their second dig to post 349 with Ricky Ponting (66), Michael Clarke (77) and Steven Smith (77) the main contributors. But the 179 run lead they took into the fourth innings of the match proved to be well short of what they needed.
