Younus Named in Pak ODI Squad Against Australia

Islamabad: Pakistan Cricket Board selectors on Thursday recalled former captain Younis Khan for a limited-overs series in Australia.

Younis was slotted at No. 13 in a 17-man squad for the five-match ODI series.

Younis went on an indefinite break from international cricket due to poor form after Pakistan lost the limited-overs series against New Zealand 2-1 in November at the United Arab Emirates.

He tried to regain his batting form by playing in domestic cricket but could score only 29 runs in two first-class matches while playing for Habib Bank Limited.

In Younis' absence, Pakistan named Mohammad Yousuf as captain. Younis has played 197 ODIs and scored 5,698 runs at an average of 33.12, including six centuries.

ODI squad Mohammad Yousuf (c), Shahid Afridi (vc), Fawad Alam, Iftikhar Anjum, Imran Farhat, Kamran Akmal (wk), Khalid Latif, Mohammad Aamer, Mohammad Asif, Naved-ul-Hasan, Saeed Ajmal, Salman Butt, Sarfraz Ahmed (wk), Shoaib Malik, Umar Akmal, Umar Gul, Younis Khan
