Younis Khan was another successful captain of Pakistan. Besides being Pakistan's all time highest scorer in Test cricket with over 10,000 test runs. He led Pakistan to a number of memorable victories like the Twenty20 World Cup 2009 and also leading Pakistan to Semi Finals in Champions trophy 2009. Besides leading Pakistan to a memorable Karachi test win over India in 2006 in the absence of Inzamam ul Haq.
Younis Khan led Pakistan to its only title in 2009 Twenty20 World Cup. Younis Khan retired from Twenty20 internationals after that. This Twenty20 World Cup 2009 win was a tremendous achievement as Pakistan's performance in 2014, 2016 and 2024 Twenty20 World Cups was below par.
In the end what I would like to say is that if Pakistani players didnt revolt against Younis Khan after Pakistan's disastrous tour of Sri Lanka in 2009 where they lost the ODI series 3-2 and test series 2-0 to Sri Lanka then Younis Khan would have led Pakistan to more glory as captain.
