Mohammad Younis Ahmed (born 20 October 1947)[1] is a Pakistani former cricketer who played in four Test matches and two One Day Internationals between 1969 and 1987.[2]

Primarily a middle-order batsman, he played first-class cricket for Pakistan Education Board, Karachi, Lahore, Pakistan International Airlines, Surrey (playing in the side that won the County Championship in 1971), Worcestershire, Glamorgan and South Australia. A consistent performer throughout his career, his interval between Test appearances, 17 years and 111 days (104 Tests, the fourth longest in history), was partly due to his participation in a tour of South Africa with DH Robins' XI in late 1973.
