Legendary Pakistani batsman Younis Khan visited Emirates Palace this morning to tour the iconic hotel and then to lead a special cricket skills clinic offering local school children the chance of a lifetime to play with a cricket superstar.
Because life at Emirates Palace isn’t all work following the clinic, fortunate Emirates Palace staff members who share a passion for the sport had the rare opportunity to play a match with the cricket legend. Khan presided over a friendly Pakistan vs. Sri Lanka match between staff members chosen for nationality and love of the game.
Khan also enjoyed time in our Bedouin tent with the kids, followed by a camel ride on our beach with one lucky young cricketer.
