'''Mohammad Younus Khan''' ([[Urdu]]/[[Pashto]]: {{Nastaliq|محمد یونس خان}}), (born November 29, 1977 [http://www.khan.bigstarcricket.com/bs/players/khan/about.shtml] in [[Mardan]], [[North-West Frontier Province]], [[Pakistan]]) is a [[Pakistan]]i cricketer and current captain of the [[Pakistan national cricket team]] since February [[2000]]. Younus' name is often spelled '''Younis Khan''', but he has been quoted as saying, "My name is Younus Khan. I tell people that everywhere, but they don’t listen."<ref>[http://www.yorkshireccc.com/archive/news656029154/index.html Why we call him Younus Khan]. ''[[Yorkshire CCC]].''

== Career ==
=== International career ===

Younus Khan made his international debut in an [[One-Day International|ODI]] against [[Sri Lankan national cricket team|Sri Lanka]] at [[Karachi]] in February 2000, and has since played over 150 ODIs for Pakistan. He has also played in over 50 [[Test cricket|Test matches]]. Younus was one of the few batsmen who retained his place in the team after Pakistan's disastrous [[2003 Cricket World Cup|World Cup campaign in 2003]], but lost it soon after due to a string of poor scores in the home series against [[Bangladesh national cricket team|Bangladesh]] and [[South Africa national cricket team|South Africa]]. He came back for the one-day series against [[India national cricket team|India]], but failed to cement a place in the Test side.

It was his return to the side in October 2004, at the pivotal one-down, against Sri Lanka in Karachi that laid the groundwork for his emergence as a force in Pakistan cricket. He was the top run-getter in the disastrous 3-0 whitewash in Australia immediately after and on the tour of [[Indian national cricket team|India]], for which Younus was elevated to vice-captain, he blossomed. After a horror start to the series he came back strongly, capping things off with 267 in the final Test. It was his highest Test score and came off 504 balls in the first innings, to set up a series levelling victory in Bangalore.

As well as being an accomplished batsman, Younus is also a skilled slip fielder and a very occasional leg-spin bowler. He has performed particularly well outside Pakistan, including on tours of Australia, India, England and Sri Lanka. In the six Tests he has played against India, Younus averages an exceptional 106, the highest average against India by a Pakistani.<ref>[http://content-usa.cricinfo.com/pakvind/content/story/232916.html Boundary avalanches and scoring rates]. ''[[Cricinfo.com]].'' Retrieved on 5 May 2007</ref> Apart from his 267 at Bangalore, Younus also made 147 at Kolkata in 2005 and a pair of centuries during India's trip to Pakistan in 2006. More importantly, the tour to India also showcased his potential as a future captain of Pakistan and his energetic and astute leadership has impressed many people. Also in 2006, Younus made a century in the third Test against England at Headingley. On 22 January 2007, he scored a matchwinning 67 not out in the 4th innings to guide Pakistan to victory over South Africa in Port Elizabeth. The five wicket win levelled the series at 1-1.

In 2005, he was one of the 15 nominees for the ICC Test Player of the Year. He is the second fastest Pakistani in terms of innings to reach 4000 Test runs, behind [[Javed Miandad]]. Younus reached the milestone in 87 innings, just one more than [[Sachin Tendulkar]] took.<ref>[http://uk.cricinfo.com/db/STATS/TESTS/BATTING/FASTEST_CAREER_TEST_RUNS/TEST_FASTEST_TO_4000_RUNS.html Tests - Fastest to 4000 Career Runs].

Younus Khan's highest position in the LG ICC's Test Batting Rankings is third, which he achieved after the third test against England in 2006.<ref>[http://www.lgiccrankings.com/test/batting/player-display.php?id=2298 Younis Khan Batting Test Ranking Statistics]. ''[[LG ICC Cricket Rankings]].''

''[[LG ICC Cricket Rankings]].'' Retrieved on 6 May 2007.</ref>
 
Younus Khan made his first 300 against Sirilanka in 24 Feb 2009.

=== Captaincy situation ===

He first led Pakistan against the [[West Indies cricket team|West Indies]] in 2005. In September 2006, he was offered the position of captain for the course of the [[2006 ICC Champions Trophy]], following the suspension of [[Inzamam ul Haq]]. He turned down the offer, stating he didn't want to be a "dummy captain".<ref>[http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/cricket/other_international/pakistan/5391474.stm Yousuf handed Pakistan captaincy]. ''[[BBC News]].'' Retrieved on 5 May 2007.</ref> However, on the morning of October 7, 2006 the [[Pakistan Cricket Board]] announced that Khan would lead his team in the tournament.<ref>[http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/cricket/other_international/pakistan/5415372.stm Younis back as Pakistan captain]. ''[[BBC News]].'' Retrieved on 5 May 2007.</ref> Following the resignation of Inzamam after the side's exit from the [[2007 Cricket World Cup]], Khan was offered the captaincy on a permanent basis, but turned it down. He blamed the angry reaction by the Pakistani public to side's early exit from the tournament.<ref>[http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/cricket/other_international/pakistan/6551181.stm Younis rejects Pakistan captaincy]. ''[[BBC News]].'' Retrieved on 5 May 2007.</ref>

After [[Pakistan National Cricket Team|Pakistan]]'s disastrous 2009 defeat to [[Sri Lanka national cricket team|Sri Lanka]], [[Pakistan Cricket Board|PCB]] chairman Ijaz Butt appointed Younus Khan as the permanent [[Pakistani national cricket captains|captain]] of both the [[Test cricket|Test]] and [[One-Day International|ODI]] teams. The appointment became effective as of January 27, 2009.<ref>[http://content-uk.cricinfo.com/pakistan/content/current/story/387996.html Younis appointed Pakistan captain]. ''[[Cricinfo.com]].'' Retrieved on 2009-01-27.</ref> Shortly after accepting the post Younus was quoted as saying, "I will try and fix things that aren't right at the moment...I want our team to be consistent above all, in everything we do and that will require everyone to put their hands up." <ref>[http://content-uk.cricinfo.com/pakistan/content/current/story/388035.html Younis wants 'magical' support]. '' He also went on to say that he had a excellent relationship with former captain [[Shoaib Malik]]and expected his full support.[[Cricinfo.com]].'' Retrieved on 2009-01-27.</ref> Younus went on to say that he expects full support from former captain [[Shoaib Malik]] whom he called a senior player in the side.

=== Domestic career ===
====Australian first-class cricket====
In 2008–09, Younus is playing for the [[Southern Redbacks]] in Australia's domestic circuit on a short-term basis. He scored a century against Queensland Bulls in the first innings of a Sheffield shield match in Brisbane, which helped the Redbacks to win their first Shield match for a year.

==== County Cricket ====
In 2005, Younus played county cricket for [[Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club|Nottinghamshire]] in England. In the 2007 English domestic cricket season, played for [[Yorkshire County Cricket Club]] as an overseas player. In doing so he was the third overseas [[Asia]]n cricketer to play for [[Yorkshire County Cricket Club|Yorkshire]] following [[Sachin Tendulkar]] and [[Yuvraj Singh]], and was succeeded by fellow [[Pakistan]]i [[Inzamam-ul-Haq|Inzamam]].

On his [[County Championship]] debut for Yorkshire, he made a disappointing 4 runs from 4 balls in his first innings, being bowled by [[Rikki Clarke]] of [[Surrey County Cricket Club|Surrey]], and just 12 in his second innings.<ref>[http://content-uk.cricinfo.com/countycricket2007/engine/match/268048.html County Championship Division One, 2007 Season, Surrey v Yorkshire]. ''[[Cricinfo.com]].'' Retrieved on 7 May 2007.</ref> However, on his one-day debut in the [[Friends Provident Trophy]], Younus hit a superb 100 from 92 balls against [[Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club|Nottinghamshire]] to lead Yorkshire to victory.<ref>[http://www.yorkshireccc.com/reportscards/friendsprovident/aoutlawsphoenix Younus century shoots down Outlaws]. ''[[Yorkshire CCC]].'' Retrieved on 7 May 2007.</ref>

He made his first [[County Championship]] century, 106 off 151 balls, for Yorkshire against [[Hampshire County Cricket Club|Hampshire]] at the [[Rose Bowl, Hampshire|Rose Bowl]] in the third match of the season and followed it up with an unbeaten double hundred, 202 off 290 balls, in the second innings to steer Yorkshire to a confident declaration. In doing so, Younus became the first Yorkshire player to score a century and a double century in the same match. Younus also made a useful contribution bowling during Hampshire's second innings, picking up four wickets for just 52 runs, however despite his and the team's efforts the match ended in a draw.<ref>[http://www.yorkshireccc.com/news/hantsfinish Younus top bowler, but Yorkshire lack final thrust]. ''[[Yorkshire County Cricket Club]].'' Retrieved on 7 May 2007.</ref> He repeated the feat of an unbeaten double century at Scarborough in a rain-affected drawn match with [[Kent County Cricket Club|Kent]]. He played a superb innings to finish on 217* off just 252 balls with 18 fours and 6 sixes. He left Yorkshire following the 8-wicket drubbing of [[Glamorgan County Cricket Club|Glamorgan Dragons]]. However, the nature of the victory denied him of the chance to sign off in a fitting matter as he was not required to bat.

==== Indian Premier League ====

In 2008 Younus signed with the [[Indian Premier League]] and was drafted by the [[Rajasthan Royals]] for a bid of $225,000 USD. He however played only 1 match in the tournament against [[Kings XI Punjab]] and scored 1 run.

== Playing style ==
Younus is regarded as one of the best players of spin bowling in the world, being particularly strong on the leg side. His favourite and trademark shot is the flick, but it has also been his shortcoming, with him being particularly prone to falling [[Leg before wicket|lbw]] during the early stages of his innings. He is also prone to getting down on one knee and driving extravagantly. But this flamboyance is coupled with grit. One of his main weaknesses is playing away from the body, he also has a tendency to leave straight balls, a trait that has been exploited by bowlers in the past, particularly by the [[Australia national cricket team|Australian]] attack. Along with [[Mohammad Yousuf]] and [[Inzamam-ul-Haq]], he has formed a formidable middle order batting line up for Pakistan.

Younus is a skillful infielder, with a report prepared by [[Cricinfo]] in late 2005 showing that since the [[1999 Cricket World Cup]], he had effected the third highest number of run-outs in ODI cricket (joint with [[Andrew Symonds]]), with the highest success rate.<ref>Basevi, Trevor (8 November 2005) [http://content-usa.cricinfo.com/ci/content/story/224487.html Statistics - Run outs in ODIs].

== Personal life ==
Younus married his wife Amna on 30 March 2007, and their son Owais was born on 26 December 2007.[http://khan.bigstarcricket.com/bs/players/khan/article_3891.shtml]

Younus had to deal with a number of deaths in his family during 2005 and 2006. Earlier in 2005 he had to fly back from a tour to Australia after his father had died. Later in the year during the England tour to Pakistan, Younus' eldest brother, Mohammed Sharif Khan, aged 41, died in a car accident in Ukraine. Another older brother, Farman Ali Khan was only 39 when killed in a car accident in Germany, in December 2006.

Younus was batting in the second ODI against [[West Indies]] in Faisalabad when the news of his brother's death reached the team management. Younus only came to know about the situation after he returned to the pavilion at the end of his innings. Younus, immediately, left for his home town Mardan and did not participate in any of the remaining matches.

Younus also mentioned his grief at the death of [[Bob Woolmer]] in March 2007 after Pakistan's exit from the World Cup. He stated that he saw Bob as a father figure after the loss of his own father and that he was able to share many personal thoughts with the cricket coach.<ref>[http://khan.bigstarcricket.com/bs/players/khan/article_1879.shtml The Worst Weekend of My Life].
