Pakistani veteran batsman Younis Khan has said that he was proud to become the first Pakistani to score a hundred against all nine Test opponents and equaling the record of most hundreds for his country on Wednesday.

Khan scored a 106 to help Pakistan recover from a precarious 7-2 to 219-4 at close on the opening day of the Test at Dubai stadium.

This was his first hundred against Australia, making him the first Pakistani and 12th batsmen overall to score a hundred against all Test opponents.

It was his 25th Test hundred, equalling Pakistan's record held by Inzamam-ul Haq.

Khan said that the feeling is very nice, it's an honour and he feels proud to become the first Pakistani to score against all countries.
