Younis Khan to star in “The Gun that never fires” – Cricket News Leak
The protagonist of the Pakistan batting line-up, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Younis-Khan-c98325, has signed an agreement with world renowned movie studio “Khan Bros”. According to the contract, the flamboyant cricketer will play the lead role in the studio’s upcoming movie titled “The Gun
that never fires”.
The movie is going to be directed by Spielberg http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Khan-c71319, who has won numerous awards and is regarded as the best director in the world. Spielberg gave an interview to Pakistan’s top news paper “The Mardan Times” and revealed the reasons that forced him to pick
Younis as the main man in his movie, which has an estimated budget of over $ 10 dollars.
Spielberg revealed that he had searched high and low for someone to fit the lead role but failed. The visionary director behind the blockbuster movie “The Three Fixers” staring http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mohammad-Asif-c1993, said that the he captured screen
tests of many international cricketers but no one suited the role.
He further added that one day he saw Younis on screen playing for Pakistan during the Asia Cup and at an instant he knew that he has found his man.
When asked what the demands of the role are, Spielberg said, “The movie revolves around a cricket player who is termed as The Big Gun of a top Test playing nation. But whenever the team requires him to fire at crucial stages against a formidable opponent,
he leaves them unaided. The BIG Gun waits for his chances and fires when weaker sides come.”
The criteria set by Spielberg sits perfectly well with the Pakistani batsman. Younis indeed has all the credentials of a Big Gun. The veteran batsman, who bats at number three for http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755, has an eye catching average of 32.66. He has also scored an amazing
6 centuries from 239 ODI matches.
No other number three batsman from any of the top four ODI playing nations comes close to Younis’ abilities, as they all have averages in the 40’s. Even the young Indian number three batsman http://www.senore.com/Cricket/V-Kohli-c2737 averages 48.67 and has 10 centuries to his name from
84 games which sound so little when compared to Younis’ track record.
Younis loves playing against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Kenya-c752 are another team, who fear Younis. Whenever Pakistan plays against Kenya, Younis
scores heaps of runs. He averages 86.50 against the Kenyans.
The 34-year-old is not always as consistent though. Against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/South-Africa-c757 the batsman has an average of 26.64 and 26.48 respectively.
Our correspondent tracked down Younis and asked him to share his views about the movie. The batsman said, “I got tears in my eye after reading the script of the movie. It felt like someone has written a biography about me. I was so inspired with the story
that I could not stop myself from signing the contract.”
Younis is no alien to movies and acting. The right-handed has already worked in Christopher Butt’s multi-award winning movie “Look busy do nothing”.
