-

vs Pakistan, Hobart (November, 1999)

At 5-126, chasing 369 on a wearing fifth-day track against an attack containing Waqar Younis, Wasim Akram, Shoaib Akhtar and Saqlain Mushtaq, Adam Gilchrist proved that he was a man for all seasons. Playing just his second Test, the keeper-batsman batted in his customary aggressive fashion, teaming up with the irrepressi­ble Langer on the fourth evening, to hand his side the win.
