Pakistan's Imam-ul-Haq gestures to the crowd as he leaves the field after being dismissed soon after he scored his century, against Bangladesh at Lord's.Pakistan's Imam-ul-Haq gestures to the crowd as he leaves the field after being dismissed soon after he scored his century, against Bangladesh at Lord's.Australia’s first test in Pakistan in 24 years ended in a dull draw on Tuesday.

Pakistan decided to bat on allowing Imam, who went into the match without a century in his previous 11 tests, to score his second hundred of the contest. A total of 1,187 runs were scored over five days and only 14 wickets fell in what Australia’s Steve Smith called a “pretty benign, dead wicket” which risks censure from the game’s governing body.

Nauman Ali dismissed Cummins for eight, and both Mitchell Starc and Lyon fell lbw as Australia finished 17 runs behind Pakistan’s first innings total.
