Pakistan's Record Completed Innings Totals
Arshad Chughtai - 7 November 2002
Pakistan's second innings total of 53 in the recent second test match
against Australia at Sharjah is their record lowest completed innings total in test cricket. Unfortunately the team had already suffered the agony of scoring their previous lowest score of 59 in the first innings of the same match. There is no other example for a team to have suffered such humiliation in recent times.
Presented below is a list of Pakistan's completed innings totals below 100 followed by their lowest innings totals against each opponent:
