Dear Aslam

Pakistan batted out today (the 5th day/last day) to draw the match in
the fourth innings, can u please provide a list of test matches where
the side batting 4th in a test batted out the 5th (or last day of the
match incase of six day tests etc) to win draw the match - only those
instances where the 4th inning started on the last day of the match...
(may be limit to 100 or more runs).

regards
Ramis

Here is a list of Tests in which a side started batting in its fourth
innings on the last day of the match and scored at least 250 runs in
that innings. The innings totals at the end of the match are in the
first column and the day of the match (D) is in the second. The sides
batting fourth are listed first and the results are from their
perspective.
