8 Test batsmen who were dismissed on 199

Sanath Jayasuriya missed his double century 19 years ago

6) Younis Khan (against India at Lahore, 2006)

Younis Khan was run out on 199

Pakistan captain Inzamam-ul-Haq won the toss and chose to bat. On a flat Lahore pitch, 4 Pakistani batsmen scored centuries as the side piled up 679 in their 1st innings. The talking point of the match came when Younis Khan was batting on 199. As he went for his 200th run Harbhajan Singh hit the stumps directly and the former was unable to make his crease. It was a brilliant piece of fielding by the “Turbanator” but the way Younis played during his innings he deserved a double century.

Rain played spoilsport on Day 2 and 3 as the match headed for a dull draw. Virender Sehwag scored a majestic double century in less than run a ball and with Rahul Dravid, the duo stitched together a 410 run partnership for the 1st wicket. They fell 3 runs short of the world record. After the loss of Sehwag, both captains decided to call off the match with very few overs left in the match.
