Australia won all the accolades after showing some grit and salvaging a draw in first Test match against Pakistan Australia at Dubai. 

It was one of most thrilling contests in test cricket in recent times. 

Usman Khawaja batted for more than 300 balls to score a heroic and record-hauling 141-run knock while captain Tim Paine helped with a  patient half century at the other end. 

However, it was not all Australia on the fifth and final day as Pakistan's Babar Azam produced a moment of magic for the Pakistanis. Azam took a great catch at short leg in one of the sharpest instances of close-fielding. 

Take a look:

The catch came in the 128th over of the match when Mitchell Starc was facing Yasir Shah. Starc was on backfoot trying to fend off a rising a ball, but it took gloves and flew towards short leg. Babar stretched his right arm out to pluck the blinder.
