COLOMBO: Pakistan’s T20 world cup winning captain and Legendary batsman Younis Khan has revealed his desire for achieving certain goals before he says farewell to cricket.
In an interview to ESPNCricinfo.com, the star batsman said “I will walk away myself, but I still have some goals in my mind and I am close to achieving those goals as well. I can’t share that goal at this point, but you will know very soon.”
Answering to a question Younis expressed that he believes he has still lot to achieve and lot to do in his life.
“I believe I still have a lot to achieve and there is a lot to do in life. But I managed to get to 100 Tests, which is a big honour. A country like Pakistan, where the number of matches is fewer compared to other parts of the world, even Javed Miandad took about 18 years to play 124. For me it has taken 15 years to get to 100. During all those years I did face a lot of difficulties but I motivated myself, worked on my fitness and kept myself in the game. This is how I managed to stretch myself to get here. “
When asked about Pakistani players who can come closer or surpass his achievement, He said I think Azhar Ali and Asad Shafiq can go beyond 100 Test matches. I think they can do it and can do better than me.”
