* Younis Khan’s took just 11 innings to knock 1000 runs against India. He thus became the second fastest after Everton Weekes to aggregate 1000 runs against India in Test cricket. At the age of 28 years and 62 days he also became the seventh youngest cricketer to do so against India. See Table 2 & 3.
* Younis Khan when reached 24, crossed another significant milestone. This was his 500th run in the current series. He had also scored 508 runs in his previous series against India in their backyard last year. He thus became only the fourth batsman to score 500 or more runs in a series against India on two or more occasions. See Table 4.
* Muhammad Yousuf crossed the 5000 career run-mark when he reached 22 on the second days play. He became only the fifth Pakistani to reach this milestone. He is also the second quickest Pakistani in terms of innings to accumulate 5000 runs. See Table 5.Click to see the tables
