Mohammad Younis Ahmed (born 20 October 1947, Jalandhar, India) is a Pakistani former cricketer who played in 4 Tests and 2 ODIs from 1969 to 1987. He recently wrote a book Lahore to London
Cricket career
The younger brother of Saeed Ahmed (Pakistan 1958-1973), Younis was primarily a middle-order batsman. He made his first-class debut aged 14, for the Pakistan Education Board against South Zone in March 1962. He also represented Karachi, Lahore, Pakistan International Airlines, Surrey (playing in the side that won the County Championship in 1971), Worcestershire, Glamorgan and South Australia. A consistent performer throughout his career, his interval between Test appearances, 17 years and 111 days (104 Tests, the fourth longest in history), was largely due to his participation in a tour of South Africa with DH Robins' XI in late 1973.
Retirement
Younis now regularly coaches at Harpenden Cricket Club and runs annual summer camps.
