Beating India in full series would be crowning glory as captain: Younis Khan

Karachi, Sep.15 (ANI): Leading his team in a full-fledged series against India and defeating the arch rivals in that is one of Pakistan cricket captain Younis Khan's biggest aspirations.

"I would love to lead the team in a full series against India as beating them would be a big achievement for me and a big plus in my career," Khan said.

Talking to media persons at the sidelines of a training camp here, Khan said he is targeting to win at least one of the next two ICC one-day tournaments.

"Every captain has certain targets in mind, mine is that we must win either of these two major ICC events until I am captain," The Daily Times quoted Khan, as saying.

He also expressed hope of wining a Test series in Australia, which Pakistan has failed to do so far. Khan said his team has the ability to create upsets, but players needed to click at crucial junctures and perform to their potential.

"We have the players to win the Champions Trophy or World Cup and even beat Australia in Australia but we need to combine and click together," he said.

Pakistan, which shares the group with India and Australia in the Champions Trophy, would kick start its campaign in the eight nation tournament against West Indies on September 23 in Johannesburg. (ANI)
