KARACHI, (Reuters) – Pakistan’s senior batsman Younus Khan has left the one-day series in Sri Lanka following the death of a relation.
“His nephew, Saad, has passed away in India where he had gone for a liver transplant,” a Pakistan Cricket Board official said yesterday.
“Younus was very close to his nephew and is shattered by the news.”
The batsman featured in the one-day victory over Sri Lanka on Saturday. The second game in the three-match series is in Hambantota today.
