After two batting-dominated draws, rival skippers Babar Azam and Pat Cummins are both targeting a series-winning victory when the third and final Pakistan-Australia Test starts in Lahore Monday. The series -- Australia's first in Pakistan for 24 years -- opened with a high scoring stalemate on a featherbed pitch in Rawalpindi before the hosts salvaged a fighting draw in Karachi on the back of an epic 196 from Azam. Lahore's Gaddafi stadium is Azam's home ground and will be staging a Test for the first time since a fatal terror attack on the Sri Lankan team bus in 2009 caused international cricket to be suspended in Pakistan.

cricket superstar Shane Warne was farewelled at a private memorial service on Sunday with former fiance Elizabeth Hurley saying her "heart aches" for not being able to attend. The legendary leg spinner's body was found at a luxury resort in Thailand on March 4, with his death aged just 52 provoking shock and grief around the world from prime ministers, rock stars and fellow players. An autopsy revealed he died of natural causes following a suspected heart attack with a private jet flying him home to his native Melbourne. He was remembered before family and friends in an invitation-only service at St Kilda Football Club, an Australian Rules team he supported all his life. Warne's three children Brooke, Jackson, and Summer were expected to be at the centre of proceedings with local media personalities and his close-knit poker group also attending.
