High lights of Misbah celebrates against England and his New style again...





 Misbah-ul-Haq’s unique celebration after completing his century

===================================================

A single off Steven Finn down to the third man saw Pakistan captain Misbah-ul-Haq becoming the oldest player to score a Test century for 82 years.

At the age of 42 years and 47 days, Misbah became the sixth-oldest man to make a century in Tests. And his celebrations were spot on after completing the century. After jogging the single to take him to three figures, he gestured to his team-mates on the pavilion balcony before getting down to do a series of push-ups. The celebration was obviously an indication of Misbah’s brilliant fitness and a joke aimed at critics who said that he is too old for international cricket.

The century was Misbah’s 10th in 62 Tests and first ever on British shores. Coming into bat when Pakistan’s innings were in a spot of bother after being reduced to 77 for 3, Misbah played a captain’s knock and led from the front.
