Rashid Latif disclosed during a talk show analysis of the incident that Younis Khan turned down a chance to become Afghanistan’s mentor and join Pakistan’s support team.
After losing three wickets in the first powerplay, Afghanistan put on an incredible batting display against England on Wednesday.
Afghanistan defeated England by eight runs at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore on Wednesday, February 27, demonstrating once more why they are no longer taken lightly in the world of cricket.
Leading the way was Ibrahim Zadran, who blasted 12 fours and six sixes in an incredible 177-run knock off just 146 deliveries. Mohammad Nabi, Azmatullah Omarzai, and skipper Hashmatullah Shahidi all made contributions with scores of 40, 41, and 40, respectively. From the pavilion, Younis could be seen applauding as the borders continued to approach.
“Younis Khan said no to Pakistan and preferred working with Afghanistan.”
