ISLAMABAD (Reuters) -Imam-ul-Haq crafted his maiden test hundred and forged two century-plus partnerships to propel Pakistan to 245 for one on day one of the opening test against Australia in Rawalpindi on Friday.

The bespectacled 26-year-old, who was not out on 132 at the close, added 105 runs with fellow opener Abdullah Shafique to give Pakistan a strong start after captain Babar Azam's decision to bat.
