"This achievement isn't just mine, it's the whole of Pakistan's" : Younis Khan

[Abdullah719]

Younis Khan speaking after getting to the 10k Test runs milestone:

"From Younis Khan, mubarak to all of Pakistan"

"This achievement isn't just mine, it's the whole of Pakistan's"

"The whole credit for this goes to my family, my parents and the late Bob Woolmer"

"I would like to thank my friends, fans and followers who have supported me in my cricketing career"

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Congrats Younis. Great achievement. Unrivaled grit and determination to make it so far with such limited natural ability.

Woolmer was the best thing that happened to Pakistani cricket in the last 20 years. Only in his era, Younis emerged as a solid test batsman and Pakistan had such a formidable middle order in Inzy, Younis, and Yousuf.

 

[Major]

the only guy in Pakistan cricket who reminds us fan of bob Woolmer!

Good stuff by Younis

 

[Big Mac]

Well we do know him

Azhar Ali is the only guy in this team who could replicate this.

I'm just abit scared that with Misbah retiring, will Azhar Ali still have a secure future in the Test Team, or will he be kicked out after just one bad series. Because our PCB makes selection based on media trends.

On the contrary

PCB makes selection based on seniority. At this point, Azhar is pretty much guaranteed a place till he chooses to retire

 

[Square Drive]

Well done Younis. Thank you for everything.

Rashid Latif:

In his now 15-year career for Pakistan, Younis has experienced many ups and downs, and on personal front as well. He lost his two brothers to heart attacks, one in Germany and one in Ukraine, and was left stunned when his sister died in Mardan. His father also died around the same time. Mid last year he lost his nephew while he was in Sri Lanka which forced him to quit the tour and make an early return home.

I doubt if anyone, struck by so many tragic deaths in the family within a span of six years, can carry on with both life and cricket with such a big heart.
