Younis wants his boys to take cue from Indian team

Karachi, January 24:: Pakistan’s senior batsman Younis Khan wants his team to take a cue from India’s aggressive attitude in Australia to beat the World Champion side when they tour the sub-continent in March-April this year.

“The Indians went at Australia aggressively during and after the Sydney Test and the attitude has paid dividends for them,” Younis said.

India surprised Australia in the third Test in Perth after losing the first two Test matches. They finished on 309 for five on the first day of the Adelaide Test on Thursday.

“I don’t think you can beat Australia by adopting a defensive or middle road policy. We will have to go full throttle at them to upset them.” Younis said he would push for an all attack policy against the Australians when they play three Tests, five one-day internationals and a Twenty20 match on their tour.

The senior player also lauded India’s attitude despite two big defeats in Melbourne and Sydney.

“I think India had the edge over Australia because of their varied bowling attack and because of their spinners. We must also field a varied attack against them."
