Relive a forgotten gem of cricketing history — the 1988 Karachi Test where Shoaib Mohammad played one of the most composed and disciplined innings ever witnessed on Pakistani soil. Scoring 94 runs off 221 balls in 319 minutes, he became the bedrock of Pakistan’s dominance against Australia. With 15 elegant boundaries and an unforgettable 197-run partnership with Javed Miandad, Shoaib laid the foundation for Pakistan’s towering first innings total of 469/9 declared.
This knock didn’t just frustrate the Aussies — it broke their spirit. Pakistan went on to win by an innings and 188 runs, and Shoaib’s near-century became a symbol of quiet excellence.

00:00A flashback to Karachi 1988, a touch-smash tail woven in grit and grace.
00:06In the heat-drenched cauldron of Karachi, Pakistan opening maestro Shweb Mohammed walked
00:12out with a bat in hand and patient in his soul.
00:15What followed was a master class in old-school test cricket.
00:19A 94-run vigil sculpted from 221 deliveries and 319 minutes of pure concentration, precision
00:27and elegance, with the blade whispering across the trough for 15 delicate force.
00:32Shweb Mohammed did not just bat, he painted a portrait of resistance.
00:36The Australian ballers toiled under the sun, but Shweb Mohammed stood like a monolith, unfazed
00:42and unbroken.
00:43So close your eyes for a moment and let the memories replay.
00:46The sun-soaked pitch, the sound of Willow on leather, and the calm presence of Shweb Mohammed
00:51at the crease, anchoring an unforgettable day in Pakistan's cricketing history.
00:56Scout Ahriksicas in Western fitness, and old horn-swept broads be uff.
00:59So far astray with a few.

06:20and we have a place to come around.
06:24The 8th century is now in the 20th century.
06:30The third time this century was the first time of war.
06:36So the third man had no idea.
06:38So the second time of war was the first time of war.
06:42There was a lot of war in the city.

07:56So, here's anQuiz.
07:59Here's an update on war.
08:03What's the change?
08:06We have to replay
08:36Alongside the ever-reliable Javed Miadad, he stitched together a momental 190
09:06seven-run stand, a partnership not just of runs but of resolve.
09:10That stand laid the cornerstone for Pakistan's mighty total of 469 for nine declared.
09:17And that's that was more than enough.
09:19The Aussies never recovered.
09:20Pakistan rolled them over with ruthless efficiency, securing a resounding victory by an innings
09:26and 188 runs.
09:28Shweb Muhammad did not get 100 that day, but he crafted something rare — a knock etched
09:33into the fabric of death-smash folklore.
09:36Shweb Muhammad batting was a quiet symphony of patience and poise, a purest delight in
09:41an age that still valued the slow burn.
09:44He was not the flamboyant stroke-maker or the headline-grabber, but rather than the craftman
09:50jizzling out an innings with monk-like discipline.
09:54Every shot from his bat felt talibrate.
09:56Born from deep concentration and classical technique, he had the rare ability to absorb pressure like
10:02a sponge, blunting fiery spells with a calm state and soft hands.
10:07Watching Shweb bat was like watching time slow down, a steady rhythm, a defensive wall,
10:12a man content in the grind.
10:14He did not dazzles with power, but he wore down ballers with unshakable resolve, anchoring
10:20Pakistan innings like a rock in the tide.
