Australian skipper Michael Clarke praised record century maker Younis Khan as a “gentleman of the game” after the Pakistani notched a century in each innings in the first Test
Younis hit an unbeaten 103, following up his 106 in the first knock, to help Pakistan set Australia a big 438-run target to win in Dubai.Australia were tottering at 59-4, still needing 379 runs or bat all through the fifth day on Sunday to avoid a defeat in the two-match series.
Clarke praised Younis as a good player.
“Younis is a very good player and has been for a long time. I found out yesterday this is only his 93rd Test match, I thought he'd played a lot more than that.”
“He's one of the gentlemen of our game, a class player,” said Clarke of the Pakistani batsman.
