Pakistan captain Inzamam-ul Haq became the fifth batsman in history to score a century in his 100th Test appearance when he hit an unbeaten 184 on the opening day of the third and final Test against India.

 

Inzamam and Younis Khan (127 not out) added 316 for the unbroken third wicket as Pakistan, looking for a series-levelling win, reached 323-2 by stumps at the Chinnaswamy stadium here on Thursday.

 

It was the 35-year-old Inzamam's 21st Test century and was studded with 25 boundaries.
