Take cue from Indians: Younis Khan
2008-01-25 06:07:00 KARACHI: Pakistan's senior batsman Younis Khan wants his team to take a cue from India's aggressive attitude in Australia to beat the World Champion side when they tour the sub-continent in March-April this year. "The Indians went at Australia aggressively during and after the Sydney Test and the attitude has paid dividends for them," Younis said.India surprised Australia in the third Test in Perth after losing the first two Test matches. They finished on 309 for five on the first day of the Adelaide Test on Thursday."I don't think you can beat Australia by adopting a defensive or middle road policy. We will have to go full throttle at them to upset them." Younis said he would push for an all attack policy against the Australians when they play three Tests, five one-day internationals and a Twenty20 match on their tour.The senior player also lauded India's attitude despite two big defeats in Melbourne and Sydney. "I think India had the edge over Australia because of the...
Misbah and Younis redeem Pak
2007-12-10 13:59:00 Pakistan saved the day with 369/5. Younis Khan played well for his 80 and Misbah for his 54 not out.Ishant Sharma impressed in his spell in which he took the wicket of Faisal Iqbal. All five Indian bowlers took a wicket each.Now the match seems to be heading for a draw. There is no glory for Pak, as India leads 1-0 in the series.In the other match in SL, Sangakara, who is ranked No 1 in ICC rankings, got out cheaply. A huge wicket for England ! But Vandort scored his half century to redeem SL. SL at stumps are 105/2.England had earlier cruised to 351, thanks to Cook scoring 81 along witn Vaughan's brilliant & stylish 87. Prior excelled with the bat scoring 79. Paul Collingwood scored 52 and England reached a respectable 351. Still I feel England has the edge, as they had taken Sangakara !
Younis Khan and Pakistan's captaincy
2007-12-08 12:51:00 Younis Khan lead the Pakistani team in the second test against India and successfully through his inning saved the match with his inning. Now he is also the captain of the team in third test in absence of Shoaib Malik, the regular captain.Younis Khan being the vice-captain got this chance.One very interesting thing is that Younis Khan had refused to be the captain of the Pakistani team due to which Shoaib Malik was appointed the captain as a second choice. Now Younis Khan is being the second choice after Shoaib Malik.If Younis had to be a acting captain why did not he chose to be the captain. Why didn't he refuse to be the vice-captain of the team when he had already refused to be the captain.And another thing, during the ICC champions trophy Inzamam-ul-haq couldn't play the series due to the ban after the oval test. Younis Khan refused to be the captain at first saying he don't want to be a dummy captain. Now he in the third test against India he is like that (dummy captain).So,...
Younis Khan redeems Pak & Sangakara SL
2007-12-05 01:57:00 Centuries by Sangakara and Younis Khan redeemed their countries. England now needs 341 to win. Pak drew the Calcutta Test, mainly due to the heroics of Khan. Sangakara is in tremendous form and ranks now as No 3. His form with the bat is amazing. No doubt, along with Gilchrist and Dhoni, he is one of the best wicket keeeper batsmen in the world. Following his 92, his 152 is simply breathtaking. If he continues in this fashion, more records will tumble.Pak batting asserted itself and they scored 214/4. Younis Khan continues in good form. No all eyes are on the final Test. Pressure still on Pak, as India leads 1-0

Younis Khan's bowling
2007-11-02 17:35:00 Younis Kahn has tried bowling a lot of times. In a test match against New Zealand, he was smashed for 28 runs in an over by Craig McCullum. Even though he hasn't given up and tried bowling (actually when the match was heading towards draw). Khan even bowled as an opening bowler in an useless test match against India. But he showed a real bowling talent in a practise match against Delhi. He took two early wickets and showed some swing with his slow bowling.Younis Kahn played a vital part for winning the match for Pakistan. Khan is a well known batsman and a filder. He has already played in an ODI as a wicket-keeper and has now bowled brilliantly. In Pakistan, where there are a lot of all-rounders, can Younis Khan proves to be such?

Younis Khan, a committee, and a circus
2007-04-17 14:16:00 Captaincy? Oh get away from me! Pakistan's cricketers must be quite confused. One minute they are appearing before a parliamentary committee, the next it's one set up by the PCB for reasons of "performance evaluation." In between there are ad-hoc committees on television, where the multiplication of channels has spawned an orgy of pontification and inquisition about the malign state of affairs in Pakistan cricket. Oh yes, and let's not forget the burning effigies. In the wake of all this angst Younis Khan has declined the captaincy. Nothing predicts behaviour like behaviour, as any good psychiatrist will tell you, and Younis has already shown his reluctance to take on the captaincy unless he is perfectly happy. I wonder how somebody could refuse the leadership of his country at a moment such as this? When Younis turned it down before the Champions Trophy I received an email from Bob Woolmer that described how baffled he was by Younis's behaviour. And Bob always supported Younis....
Younis turns down Pakistan captaincy
2007-04-16 16:15:00 'I am still hurt and upset at the sort of hostile reception we have got since returning from the World Cup' - Younis Younis Khan has officially declined the captaincy of Pakistan, citing continuing mental strain after the traumatic events of recent weeks as the main factor in his decision. Younis has been Pakistan's vice-captain for two years and was widely expected to take over following the resignation of Inzamam-ul-Haq in the wake of Pakistan's first-round ouster at the World Cup. But after a fortnight of speculation in which it emerged that he was reluctant to take over, he confirmed his decision to the Urdu daily, Express in an interview. "They offered me the captaincy with full powers," Younis said. "The PCB said they would also be appointing a strong selection committee to back me up. But I refused after thanking them for their offer." Privately, PCB officials had already resigned themselves to the fact that Younis would not take over though it is thoug...
Who can be next Pakistani captain after Younis Khan’s refuse?
2007-04-14 04:10:00 The vice-captain of Pakistani team, Younis Khan refused to be the captain of Pakistani team and said that he may retire from ODI and play only for test. He told that after the misbehave of the Pakistani fans and the former players, he is embarrassed and is not interested in captaining the team. He told that it wasn’t a good behave from the fans, they should have realized that playing for the team is difficult and sometimes they may face loss too.I think that Younis Khan has done a good decision by leaving ODI because he is not suited for that type of game. He has got an average of about 33 in ODI whereas his average is about 47 in tests. Why is he forced to be the captain of Pakistani team when there are players better than him who can really captain the side well? There are a number of experienced player who play better cricket than him. He is over thirty doesn’t mean that he is more capable. Pakistani team should make someone younger like Smith in South Africa.Who can be Pakis...

Younis's unwelcome homecoming
2007-03-28 01:40:00 'Who will make me sit on the donkey?' Poor Younis Khan. After all he and his team-mates endured in the Caribbean, the last thing he needed was a rude reception at Karachi airport. But that's exactly what he got, with a throng of fans and journalists barracking him. "He has brought disgrace to the country," said one fan, Mohammed Ahsan, "and he should stop playing cricket for Pakistan." Younis was the second Pakistani to arrive home after Mohammad Yousuf, who somehow evaded the media swarm. Not Younis. "Bring a donkey for him and ask him to sit on it and roam him around the city," said Rana Majid. "Who will make me sit on the donkey?" Younis responded before creeping into a waiting vehicle by some relatives. "Such things do happen in cricket, so why are you all so angry?" said one of the relatives. The car then sped off.
