Younis Khan joined the side as the batting consultant in November and signed a two-year contract, meaning his stint was till November 2022. But it has come to light that the 43-year old had a heated exchange with fast bowler Hasan Ali.

Pakistan’s leading run-getter in Test cricket is said to have approached Ali over a matter outside his domain after the match; however, the right-arm pacer responded rudely.
