"I am disappointed that he didn't listen to my advice because I feel he is our top batsman and should have been going to Australia. But since he didn't make himself available there is nothing the selectors could do," he added.

The PCB Chairman said despite several attempts by the PCB to contact Younus, nothing had come out of it.

"At present we don't even know where Younus is as he has not gotten back to us as yet," he stated.

Sources close to Younus said the senior batsman had entered into a contract with the Mannan Memorial Gymkhana Club in Quetta and had gone to play some matches for them.

Sources said Younus still wanted time to ease himself back into cricket by playing some club matches.
