Sydney: Younis Khan scored his 34th Test century to equal Sunil Gavaskar's record of tons. Younis' first century in Australia kept Pakistan's first innings barely alive in the final Test in Sydney yesterday.
The 39-year-old also became the first batsman to score Test hundreds in 11 countries as he spearhead the Pakistan fightback on a rain-affected Day Three.
Younis went to stumps on 136 with the tourists still trailing Australia by 267 runs and 68 from avoiding the follow-on. Pakistan were 271-8 with Yasir Shah five not out.
