Pakistan cricket captain discusses future with boss

10:38 am on 16 October 2009

Pakistan's cricket captain Younus Khan has had discussions with his boss about his future after submitting his resignation over match-fixing allegations.

The allegations were levelled by the chairman of the National Assembly sports committee following Pakistan's losses to Australia and New Zealand at the recent Champions Trophy one day tournament in South Africa, although the team was cleared of any wrongdoing.

The Pakistan Cricket Board wouldn't go into detail about the meeting, but sources close to the PCB said Younus had asked to be made captain until the 2011 World Cup to be held in the sub-continent.
