The partnership of 108 runs ended when Azhar departed after scoring 53 but Younis Khan continued his inning with skipper Misbah and scored his 25th test century.&nbsp;Johnson dismissed Younis Khan soon after his century with an incoming delivery that struck his back-leg.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-family:arial\"><span style=\"font-size:14px\">Misbah battled his way to stumps in the company of Shafiq with the latter surviving a few scares as well. Johnson was terrific for the Aussies with his pace and swing unsettling the Pakistan batsmen. Johnson was the most successful of the lot taking 3\/22 from his 20 overs.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-family:arial\"><span style=\"font-size:14px\">This was Younis&#39; first hundred against Australia, making him the first Pakistani and 12th batsmen overall to score a hundred against all Test opponents. It was his 25th Test hundred, equalling Pakistan&#39;s record held by Inzamam-ul-Haq.&nbsp;&quot;The feeling is very nice, it&#39;s an honour and I feel proud to become the first Pakistani to score against all countries,&quot; said Younis after the day&#39;s play ended.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-family:arial\"><span style=\"font-size:14px\">CRICKETNMORE<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n",
