After dedicating the World T20 win to Bob Woolmer, Pakistan's coach who died during the 2007 World Cup, Younis Khan now wishes to go one further: Win the Champions Trophy in the country Woolmer chose to make his home.
Born in Kanpur, Woolmer played for England, but had settled in South Africa.
"It would be great if we could win in the land where Bob lies buried... It would be wonderful if I could either take the Trophy to Cape Town and place it before Mrs Woolmer or invite her here, if we do win... Woh ek bahut bada kaam ho jaye ga," the Pakistan captain told The Telegraph rather emotionally .
Assured of a semi-final berth, step No.1 has been reached.
