Australia v Pakistan, second Test: Younis Khan makes double century in first innings Younis Khan celebrates his double century against Australia in the second Test. AFTER hitting a record-equalling third century in three Test innings against Australia, Younis Khan had nothing left. The 36-year-old had spent more than three sessions at the crease and passed the 150-mark, but there in the distance was the carrot of a fifth career double hundred. Suddenly on Friday, unlike the first day of the second Test against Australia in Abu Dhabi, more than 10,000 fans started to make themselves heard. A big crowd was present to see Younis Khan make a double century. Friday is a day off for many workers and with a large Pakistan-born population in Abu Dhabi, plenty had made their way to Sheikh Zayed Stadium. Azhar Ali and Younis Khan had made hundreds and skipper Misbah-ul-Haq was on his way to one as well. "It was really amazing playing in front of my countrymen," Younis said. When I was between 160 and 170 my body started to go down and wasn't responding much. But when I saw people coming into the stadium and there were many already so I just didn't want to disappoint them and put my efforts back to score a double for them. Younis Khan leaves the ground at the tea break on 205 not out. Younis scored 213 in eight-and-a-half hours after his twin centuries in last week's first Test in Dubai, which Pakistan won by 221 runs. Younis is now the third Pakistan batsman to have scored 8000 Test runs. "I am not great, like Javed Miandad, Inzamam-ul-Haq," Younis said. I want to be remembered as team man who loves to serve and his performance to make his country proud. Younis Khan of Pakistan leaves the ground at the tea break on 205 not out. Younis's memorable performances in the two-Test series against Australia have come after he was overlooked for the one-day series earlier in October and was rumoured to be considering retirement. They have hurt me, if you say that I am not in future planning then it hurts. I am fit and I am committed," he said at the time, but Younis was calm in reflecting on the incident today. "I can't explain how I have spent that particular week as my family and friends were all tense," he said. They were all wondering what I am going to do. They were afraid I might retire or something. A win for Pakistan or a draw would clinch Pakistan's first Test-series win over Australia since 1994. "When you score runs and contribute a lot in the game you want the team to win comprehensively so I have a desire that we manage to pull off a whitewash," Younis said.
