YOUNIS LEADS PAKISTAN CHARGE

-

ABU DHABI: Younis Khan showed no ill effects from dengue fever to score a brilliant century as Pakistan dominated the opening day of the second Test against the West Indies in Abu Dhabi on Friday. The 38-year-old, who missed the 56-run victory in the first Test in Dubai with the illness and was in hospital just last month, smashed 127 to carry Pakistan to 304-4 at the close at Sheikh Zayed Stadium. Younis finally holed out to deep midwicket off part-timer Kraigg Brathwaite after five hours at the crease, with fading light prompting the umpires to halt the day six overs before the scheduled close. BRIEF SCORES: Pakistan 304-4 (Younis Khan 127, Misbah-ulHaq 90 batting, Asad Shafiq 68; Shannon Gabriel 2-43) vs WI
