Don’t discount Younis as an ODI player… most people get blinded by his slower starts in ODIs but he makes up for that through a longer innings which provides stability to other players, and in most recent matches where he’s clicked, his strike rate has neared 100% in ODIs.
Also in comparison with Malik, with Younis’ ODIaverage of 34.01 against Malik’s 35.7 and Younis’ ODI SR of 77.38 against Malik’s 79.80, there really isn’t much to choose between the two. What perhaps gives Younis a slight edge is his couple of years more experience and his demeanor on the field. I just hope he gets the respect of his players and can manage the team well.
