Internet Desk: Pakistan captain Misbah-ul-Haq and legendary batsman Younis Khan were honoured by their team-mates and opponents when they went into the field to play their last Test innings.

Pakistan were batting the their second innings on the fourth day of the third and final Test against West Indies in Dominica, the most experienced pair came together to bat at 57/3.

42 year old Misbah scored just 2 runs in his last test innings, on the other hand his compatriot Younis Khan scored 35 runs before getting out on the last ball before tea.

The experienced Pakistani due have jointly scored 15,321 runs in 193 Test matches.

Both the veteran cricketers received honour after their final innings.

Misbah announced last month that he would retire from international cricket after this three-Test series in the Caribbean – which is level at 1-1 – shortly after he and Younus were named as two of Wisden’s five Cricketers of the Year.

Younus, Pakistan’s leading Test run-scorer who captained them to World Twenty20 success in England in 2009, revealed his own retirement plans two days later.

The match itself is intriguingly poised going into the final day, with West Indies on 7-1, chasing a victory target of 304 as Pakistan bid to seal a series win in the Caribbean for the first time in their history.
