Post subject: 50 First Class Centuries for Younis | |
|
Younis Khan is 101 n.o. at stumps on day 4 of the 3rd. Test against Sri Lanka, leaving Pakistan to get 127 runs with 8 wickets in hand, to win.
Younis and Shan Masood (147*) share an unfinished 3rd. wicket stand of 217. It was Masood's maiden Tests ton but Khan's 30th.
He has an amazing conversion rate, in Tests: 30 hundreds. 29 fifties. _________________ Donny.

They actually need 147 runs to win which they should achieve by the mid session today. Even though I wanted SL to win, I have to commend these two Pakistani batsmen for two brilliant knocks on the fourth day wicket which did not give the bowlers much assistance. They were simply too good for the toiling SL bowlers and SL also made a huge unbelievable error in not selecting their best spinner Herath for this test.
If and when Pakistan complete this win, it will be richly deserved by them. _________________ Don't confuse your current path with your final destination. Just because it's dark and stormy now doesn't meant that you aren't headed for glorious sunshine! |

True Donny but even Pakistan cant stuff this one up from here mate. The SL bowlers are totally fatigued and very low on confidence after expecting the pitch to do all the work for them. I predict a fairly comfortable win for Pakistan actually unless the weather intervenes. _________________ Don't confuse your current path with your final destination.

Top effort for a chase.
Younis was 171 n.o. as Pakistan won by 7 wickets. Misbah was 59 n.o. Masood scored 125. _________________ Donny.
