Younis Khan to return home
By News Desk
Updated Sunday, 08 May 2011 18:05:07 - IST (UTC +5:30)
"Younis is returning home today as unfortunately his elder brother, Shamshad Khan, has passed away in Germany," a board official said.
There is unlikely to be a replacement for Younis for the first Test because of logistical reasons, but the team management may consider someone for the second Test.
The loss of Younis, a 67-Test veteran, will be a big blow for a side that is thin on experience. His absence means there is no one in the Pakistan squad who has played a Test in the West Indies.
