He got 23 Test centuries but dismissed in 90s only once in his entire career and that was back in 2001 when he got out at 91 against New Zealand.

He is smart. When a century is on he takes singles to get it. Its a remarkable approach lost on many players ( especially our youngsters). This is why he can score big and score easily. No pressure means easily pick gaps to reach a hundred. Goes to show you the mental prowess of a player.

Ironically this is the reason why Younis should have flourished in ODIs. He has all the ingredients, he's got shots all round the wicket, hits big, runs hard and is very fit.
This why his average ODI career will remain a mystery. Masterful test batsman but inexplicably couldn't replicate his skills in LOIs.
he is nervous 190s guy
Both were run outs IIRC.OO out for 199 and 194 that must suck, but seriously i think by the time he is done top 5 bat of all time for Pak. (Test ONLY)
Top 2 easily, alongside Miandad.Which considering the amount of seriously good batsmen we have ahd says something. Since Inzie and Moyo he has been the backbone of that test batting line up

Is Younis Pakistan's best batsman against India? I know Zaheer Abbas had a great record as well, in fact both racked up a lot of runs in tests and ODIs!
Got to be looking at another 200+ score now for Younis.
Pak batsmen with +1000 Test runs against India
I just notice that YK did not have score 100 against Australia. Does anyone know when is series against Australia? i heard this year we are playing Australia in UAE? i hope he score 100 against Australia.

Nice to see you back mate, top poster24 Test centuries and dismissed in 90s only once...
He is looking soo good that i might just back a double here.
Pakistan powerhouse has already scored 50% of the runs today tells you how important Younis Khan is.
But very interesting stats, to bad he could't have 2 more double tons on his name.
Already in the top 2 in tests, alongside Miandad. Big question now is whether he can get to the top by the time he retires.OO out for 199 and 194 that must suck, but seriously i think by the time he is done top 5 bat of all time for Pak. (Test ONLY)

May not hold on to it for long in tests if YK keeps going like has for the last few years. Pretty even at the moment and when rating players, YK falls victim to the 'better back in the day' complex(a'la Steyn being rated below Wasim despite being a superior bowler because all we have of Wasim are nostalgia tinted memories while his failings are forgotten).Nah Javed has that honor

Didn't get to play 10 or 11 test matches whenwas captaining.
He was also in form back then. (Practically been in form in tests since 2005)
Gun player.
I remember the run out at 199 versus us (India) . Afridi was the culprit, but YK, being the legend that he is, didn't even stare back or yell at Afridi even for once.
Harsha Bhogle was commentating and said what a gentleman Yk is, had he yelled at Afridi he might have been under pressure but he just sprinted back to the pavillion, smiling. Not making a fuss. Not gutted.
Afridi went on to plunder 24 runs in a Bhajji over later that day.
Just a question.
Why aren't double and triple hundreds counted as separate centuries as well?

Yeah. But same can't be said about 190s though.......
