Pakistan 142 and 8 for 382 (Shafiq 100*, Azhar 71, Younis 65) need 108 runs to beat Australia 429 and 5 for 202 dec Scorecard and ball-by-ball detailsDuring the rain delay that ensured day four would stretch well into the Brisbane night, highlights of the 1999 Hobart Test were aired. Play resumed before Adam Gilchrist and Justin Langer were shown completing their fabled chase, but by stumps a magnificent Asad Shafiq innings was allowing Pakistan to dream of an even greater feat.To achieve 490 to win would comfortably be the biggest chase of all time, more remarkable still for the fact that Pakistan were shot out for 142 in the first innings. Yet Shafiq, Mohammad Amir and then Wahab Riaz played with such confidence on a friendly Gabba pitch that Australias captain Steven Smith will sleep fitfully tonight.It was Smith who dropped Shafiq late in the evening, before the umpires allowed Australia to take the extra half hour to try to claim the result on the fourth night. But tired bowlers and a wearing ball ensured the eight overs were largely fruitful for Pakistan, until Jackson Bird found an edge from Wahab in the final over of the day. While Smith clung on this time, his gambit had cost 51 runs.The hosts were visibly frustrated by Pakistans rearguard, which began with Azhar Ali and Younis Khan and then was sustained after dinner by the polished Shafiq, Amir, who played with rare skill for the second time in the match, and the jittery but ultimately powerful Wahab. Yasir Shah, who played out the final over, was no slouch either.Mitchell Starc had words with Amir at various points, and there were plenty of grimaces to be seen in the field as Australia were made to bowl throughout the day and night, lengthened by more than an hour by a rain delay either side of the tea break. Starc, Bird and Nathan Lyon all bowled strong spells at various times, while Josh Hazlewood was particularly stingy until Amir and Shafiq capitalised on some looser stuff in the final session.Azhar and Younis, the overnight Pakistan batsmen, had shown good sense and plenty of determination to take their partnership to 91 without giving a chance before tea. Starc and Hazlewood could not initially find the right length to trouble the batsmen as they had done earlier in the match, while Bird and Lyon were also unable to break through.The vital wicket arrived in the second session, when Starc fired a bouncer towards Azhars armpit, forcing the batsman into a reflexive glance that took enough of the shoulder of the bat for Matthew Wade to complete the catch. Misbah-ul-Haq was seldom comfortable during his stay, and his feet were in a muddle when he touched a ball from Bird to the keeper.Younis had previously made a hundred at the Gabba, for South Australia in a Sheffield Shield match in 2008. His duel with Lyon was a fascinating one, with the batsman trying to assert himself but having to deal with more pace and bounce than had been the case when Lyon struggled against Pakistan in the UAE in 2014.After numerous deliveries had taken the inside half of Younis bat, he elected to try a reverse sweep, but was only able to flip it up and into Smiths hands at slip via bat and body.Shafiq and Sarfraz Ahmed showed attacking intent in the lead-up to the dinner interval, and on resumption Sarfraz was reprieved when Smith spilled an edge from a Hazlewood away swinger. Smiths annoyance at the miss was clear, but he only had to wait another five runs from Sarfraz before Starc burst through the wicketkeepers forward stroke with a hint of inswing.Australia celebrated that wicket as though it was the harbinger of a fourth-night finish, but instead Amir and Shafiq combined for a stand of 92 that not only made Smiths men wait but also whittled down the target at a dramatic rate. Amirs fluency was such that it seemed strange he did not possess a Test half-century, and it was the search for the final two runs to get one that appeared to affect his concentration - an edge behind off Bird soon followed.Wahab looked far less comfortable to begin with, but he was able to endure as Shafiq forged on, and together they tore into the Australian bowlers when Smith took the extra half hour. In doing so, Shafiq demonstrated a soundness of technique and positivity of mindset that Pakistan can take plenty from moving into the Boxing Day Test, even if his effort turned out to be in a losing cause.

SEATTLE -- Nelson Cruz reached another home run milestone, this time with a shot that left no doubt where it was going to land.I thought it might be out of the stadium from the angle I was sitting, Seattle manager Scott Servais said.Cruz hit his 20th home run of the season, Robinson Cano had three hits including an RBI single and the Mariners beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 5-2 on Tuesday night.Seattle won for the third time in four games thanks to an offense that finished with 12 hits and a key walk in the fifth inning that started the Mariners three-run rally.While Cruzs home run was the big blow of the fifth inning, the biggest at-bat came from Franklin Gutierrez. With two outs, Gutierrez was able to work a 10-pitch walk off Pittsburgh starter Jonathon Niese (6-6). Gutierrez advanced to second on a wild pitch then came around to score on Canos third hit.It really started it all. Two out, nobody on and a walk. Amazing how that works, Servais said. We talk about it, its really what we did a lot earlier in the season and I think this whole homestand has been better.Cruz then followed with a line shot just fair down the line. It was his 11th homer this season off a left-hander, and Cruz became the only current player with at least 20 home runs in every season since 2009. David Ortiz and Brian McCann can also reach that mark this season.Its just being able to play a lot of games, Cruz said. Its how you put the numbers (up). You dont just throw it out there. You have to play games to be able to put up numbers. Youre thinking as a player how to stay healthy and play as many games.Niese didnt make it out of the fifth for his shortest outing of the season.I thought I had some pretty good stuff early, just at the end everything went flat, Niese said.Seattle starter Hisashi Iwakuma (7-6) took a shutout into the seventh inning before giving up a pair of runs. Iwakuma has pitched into the seventh in six of his past seven starts. Without his normally sharp splitter, the veteran relied heavily on a slow curveball that kept Pittsburgh off-balance.Chris (Iannetta) had a lot of confidence in it in the bullpenn.dddddddddddd He called it a lot, I didnt shake and it worked out well, Iwakuma said through an interpreter.Iwakuma was nearly perfect through the sixth, facing just one batter over the minimum and allowing two hits. He ran into trouble in the seventh, beginning with Gregory Polancos leadoff double. Polanco scored on Starling Martes triple to deep right-center field, and Marte scored on David Freeses two-out single. Iwakuma was lifted after giving up a base hit to Adam Frazier, the fourth hit of the inning.Edwin Diaz got out of the jam in the seventh and pitched a perfect eighth. Steve Cishek pitched the ninth for his 18th save.SEE YA!Pittsburgh hitting coach Jeff Branson was ejected by home plate umpire Ben May arguing a strike call on the first pitch of the fifth inning. Pittsburgh manager Clint Hurdle soon followed, getting ejected after a brief argument with May after Branson had been tossed.I didnt think it was warranted, so once he threw (Branson) I went out and let him know that this was a little continuation of what weve been dealing with too much, Hurdle said.TRAINERS ROOMPirates: RHP Gerrit Cole (triceps strain) threw a 35-pitch bullpen on Tuesday and threw fastballs and off-speed pitches. Cole threw just 15 pitches in his last bullpen session, all fastballs.Mariners: RHP Felix Hernandez threw 25 pitches off a mound for the first time since going on the disabled list with a strained calf. Manager Scott Servais said Hernandez didnt feel any discomfort but there is no timeline yet on a possible return. ... LHP Charlie Furbush threw a 35-pitch bullpen session and is scheduled to throw to hitters on Saturday.UP NEXT:Pirates: Jameson Taillon (1-1) makes his fifth career start on Wednesday. Hes allowed eight earned runs in eight innings over his past two starts.Mariners: Wade Miley (6-3) returns after missing two weeks. Mileys last start came on June 12 when he lost against Texas. Miley was placed on the disabled list with an impingement in his left shoulder.
