Younis Khan achieves 10,000 historic Test runs

With an impress spinner Roston Chase within the minutes when tea on the third day at Sabina Park, Younis Khan became the primary Pakistan hitter to get 10,000 runs in check cricket. He got there in his 208th innings - averaging a shade over fifty three - the sixth quickest among the thirteen batsmen to possess passed the milestone.

Younis, 39, marked the instant with a broad smile, associated by raising his arms to approval from his team-mates and a modest crowd in Kingston - maybe the foremost subdued setting conceivable for such an accomplishment. on a daily basis earlier, Younis had aforesaid he may not finish his 17-year international career together with his captain Misbah-ul-Haq at the conclusion of the archipelago tour, if his team asked him to play on, however later processed that this this might be his last.

Younis had been Pakistan's leading run-scorer in Tests since Oct 2015, once he went past Javed Miandad's tally of 8832 runs throughout the national capital check against European nation.

"Someday i'd be glad with my goals and achievements however i'm pushing myself for additional," Younis had aforesaid when passing Miandad. "I believe next the 2 years if I stay within the same mode I see myself larger than this and would really like to get 10,000 runs."


Younis achieved 10,000 in a few year and a 0.5 since he became Pakistan's highest run-maker, averaging nearly forty seven within thefourteen matches between then and currently.

He fell for fifty eight, once he drove engineer Garbiel to hide, and departed to a different ovation from his team-mates.
