Pakistan pulled off a draw in Bangalore Test

Although everyone expected a draw from Bangalore test, it became clear that Kumble did a blunder by not declaring the Indian innings 1 hour earlier. Pakistan got only 48 overs to save the test match. In the end, Pakistan were 162/7 in 36 overs when bad light stopped play. Kumble grabbed 5 wickets, while Yuvraj Singh got 2 wickets.

The result would have been otherwise had India declared their second innings a bit earlier. India won the series 1-0. Saurav Ganguly was declared "Man of the Match" and "Man of the Series". It was India's first series win against Pakistan at home since 1979-80.
