The current skipper of the Pakistani Test team has the highest score by a Pakistani wicketkeeper in Tests since 2010

When New Zealand and Pakistan played a Test series in 2014, Sarfraz Ahmed was an emerging wicket-keeper who used to bat at number 7 or number 8. In this Test match too he came out to bat at number 7 after Ish Sodhi bowled Azhar Ali and Pakistan were trailing by 183 runs. Sarfraz showed character and played excellent strokes against the New Zealand bowling attack. The wicket-keeper batsman added 81 for the last wicket with Rahat Ali before becoming the final Pakistani batsman to be dismissed in the 1st innings.

His 125 run innings helped Pakistan reduce New Zealand’s lead to a mere 10 runs. Chasing 261 in the second innings, Sarfraz remained not out on 24 as the match ended in a draw.
