And that's it. All Pakistan needed was 16 balls to wrap up a resounding 263-run win. Naseem took a wicket with the first ball of the day, and the next over, Oshada Fernando nicked off to first slip off Yasir Shah. Naseem Shah would wrap up the win with his first five-fer, trapping Vishwa Fernando plumb in front. Fernando would review, just, it would seem, for a laugh; I've never seen a more straightforward decision.

And that, perhaps, kickstarts another era for Pakistan. It's one they've begun outstandingly. The last time Pakistan won a Test in Pakistan also came in Karachi- over 13 years ago - when Pakistan beat West Indies.
