the pitch becoming very difficult for the batsmen. For India, Ravi Shastri claimed four wickets, Maninder three and Yadav two. Pakistan shocked India with two early wickets as Wasim Akram dismissed Srikkanth and Amarnath in successive deliveries with India reeling at 15 for 2. Vengsarkar joined Gavaskar and their partnership made 49 runs before Vengsarkar was clean bowled by Tauseef with Indian score reading 64 for 3. Wicket-keeper Kiran More was sent in as night watchman, but he was out for 3 and at the end of the third day India were 99 for 4 with Azharuddin and Gavaskar on 7 and 51 runs respectively, needing another 122 runs to win. Day 4 – 17 March On the rest day (16 March), Pakistan bowlers Iqbal Qasim and Tauseef Ahmed happened to meet Bishan Singh Bedi at a reception, who advised them not to try too much on the turning pitch. On the fourth day India resumed their innings on a crumbling pitch. Gavaskar and Azharuddin brought the target under 100 runs, but Azharuddin was brilliantly caught and bowled by Iqbal Qasim for 26. Shastri had a 30 runs partnership with Gavaskar as he was caught and bowled, again by Iqbal Qasim at the score on 155. After Kapil Dev was out for two, India went to lunch on 161/7, still needing 60 runs to win. After adding 19 runs after lunch, Sunil Gavaskar was controversially given out caught off of his wrist for 96 in his final Test innings. India still needed another 41 runs to win, but lost Shivlal Yadav for four and last man Maninder Singh joined Roger Binny with 36 more runs needed to win. Binny counter attacked Tauseef with a six, but was caught by Saleem Yousuf off Tauseef Ahmed for 15 as India were bowled out for 204 runs, Pakistan winning the match by 16 runs. The match was the only one of the five-match series which ended in a victory, meaning Pakistan won the series 1–0. Gavaskar was adjudged the Player of the Match and Imran Khan Player of the Series.
