Pakistan just miss a Gabba miracle

Season 3, Ep 5: It's the Gabba just before Christmas in 2016, a match in which Pakistan get set 490 to win... and damn near run it down. Asad Shafiq, Yasir Shah and Mitchell Starc play the defining hands in the first pink-ball match played in Brisbane, including the first appearance of a swimming pool in the stands, and one of the most joyful fifth days in Test cricket. Experience the magic.

This season was originally recorded for the ABC.
