More than six decades ago, Australia were destroyed by the pace duo of Fazal Mahmood and Khan Mohammad as Pakistan cruised to a historic triumph in Karachi
In 1956, on their way back from a Test tour of England, a full strength Australian side stopped in Karachi to play a solitary Test against Pakistan. The match witnessed many milestones.This five-day Test was scheduled to be played over a seven day span from 11th-17th October. This was because for the first time in the history of Tests two official rest days had been scheduled in a Test match. The original rest day was on 14th October, after the customary three days of play, but an additional rest day was added on 16th October, since it was a national holiday marking the death anniversary of Pakistan’s first prime minister Nawabzada Liaquat Ali Khan.
