For the first time in the history international cricketers witnessed their names go onto the famous Lord’s Honours Board in the touring team dressing room at Lord’s Cricket Ground – the Home of Cricket.

Misbah-ul-Haq saw his 114 recorded on the list of batsmen who had scored centuries at Lord’s. Yasir Shah saw his bowling figures of 6-72 and 4-69 recorded on the both the board recording test cricketers who have taken five wickets at Lord’s and who have taken ten wickets in the match at Lord’s.

Over one hundred Test Matches have been played at Lord’s. The first test match at Lord’s was played between England and Australia in 1884. Until now no players have witnessed their names going up on the Honours Board. Pakistan were honoured for their players to be the first to be able to witness their names enter cricket history.
