Richards had achieved the landmark against England at Antigua in 1986.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nDuring the innings, Misbah also broke the fastest Test half-century record, reaching the mark off just 21 balls, eclipsing South African Jacques Kallis, who took 24 balls in 2005.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nPakistan declared at 293\/3 in their second innings to set Australia a target of 603 runs for victory who were struggling at 143\/4 at stumps on day four. Pakistan are leading the two-match Test series 1-0 after winning by 221 runs in Dubai.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n",
