A salute to the Pakistan cricket team for providing an unexpectedly compelling series & playing in the true spirit of Test cricket. With limited preparation and missing a number of their key players, they fought tooth and nail in every Test and were a revelation on and off the field, proving that hard test cricket can be played without the aggro.

“The respect shown by the opposition throughout this series has been second-to-none,” Adam Gilchrist said on Fox Cricket.

“This series has been played in terrific spirit.” Mark Waugh added.

Captain Pat Cummins noted the sense of fraternity: "Out in the middle I think both teams play quite similarly, play hard but everyone's ready to joke with each other and have a bit of a laugh and not take it too seriously if the moment doesn't require it to be."
