Tarek Aziz was not out for all 4 innings. The 11th batsman, not out in the whole series, facing a total of 108 deliveries for 149 minutes. Although he only scored 22 runs, he supported the significant contributors at the other end in all 4 innings. These are the signs of a very reliable tailender.

all these are great. but u know what, i'm tired of picking up the positives out of rambles instead of pure result.

positive: a well-earned dominated draw.

negative: 3 odi loose and one test loose with innings defeat.

end of equation.
