The Man has been nothing less than a Superman for the Pakistan cricket team. Khan comes to Rescue when the team needs his charisma, his gusty attitude and his unusual class helps the team out in the toughest of the times. No matter what the situation is Khan plays his natural game and tends to take Pakistan to a position where they can be safe.
From a double hundred against Zimbabwe in the 3rd innings to a gutsy 171* against Sri Lanka to get the target, khan never lacks what it take to be the best. Getting back to back hundreds against Australia isn’t much of a easy act khan gels up with who ever is on the other end and forms his way through the thick and thin and saves Pakistan from the unwanted defeat. He’s not been the best in the short format but there’s no doubt that Younis is nothing less than one of the best test cricketer undoubtedly Pakistan has produced.
We might not mention his name next to Sachin Tendulkar and Kumar Sangakara but Younis has achieved milestones no one else has. Younis comes with 4 Hundreds in the last innings a feast even the great Sachin Tendulkar could achieve.
Younis khan comes with a unusually playing style and class like no one else! The sweeps of the spinner and angled bat single and nudges here and there for singles are the trademark of Khan. Khan is very different from the rest of the greats like Javaid Miandad and Inzamam ul Haq. He’s never too shy to dance down the track of the spinner. Younis is someone who can out of the box hit the kitchen sink at the spinners and Make if tough for them.
He recently in a interview stated that he wants to achieve series wins in England and Australia. To add up he wants a century to His name in Australia. The form of life he is currently in can make him achieve the feast if he’s given a few test matches in Australia.
Currently in the series against England Younis khan broke the thirty years long held record of Javaid Miandad for most runs by a test batsman of Pakistan. The 37 years and 102 test old test took over Javaid Miandads 8832 run feast at 4:35 PST with a huge six over the leg side when he danced down the track.
Younis brings I’m a ray of hope for the team and will always be the unsung hero of the team.
