Pakistan pull off astonishing Maghrib Run Chase to turn a Test on its head, with an incredible batting performance in the dying moments of Final Day, when they scored 302 runs in 57.3 overs to Sucker-Punch Sri Lanka and level the three match series.

Indeed, among the many kinds of finishes that Test cricket makes possible, a classic template for exciting Test-match wins: a chase completed in the dying overs of the fifth day.
