Younus Khan to Play his opening match against India in the ICC Champions Trophy


Paksitan captain Younus Khan has fully in a good health from the injury and he will play in the next match of the Pakistan team in opposition to their rivals India. Pakistan will lock horns with India in Centurion on September 26.

Younus had continued a minor hairline fracture in his little finger of right hand during a warm-up match against Warriors in Benoni on September 20 and he was guided to take rest by doctors.

Youins had failed to spot Pakistan’s first match against West Indies in Centurion on Wednesday. Pakistan had won that low scoring match by five wickets.

Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) issued a release stating that Younus has recovered from the injury and he will be available for the match against India.

Last time Pakistan and India had met each other in Centurion in the 2003 World Cup. Sachin Tendulkar had smashed brilliant half-century and India had won the match by six wickets.
