Karachi, July 27 - Pakistan cricket captain Younis Khan has vehemently denied rumours of divisions in his team, saying he would step down if such a problem existed.

In an emotional interview to Daily Jang Monday, Younis stressed that there were no problems in the Pakistan team and speculations of infighting in the dressing room are being spread by some people with vested interest.

Younis, who took over as Pakistan captain earlier this year and led his team to a title-winning triumph in the World Twenty20 championship in England in June, has been under fire for failing to inspire the tourists in Sri Lanka, where they lost the Test series 0-2.

Some critics have blamed division within the team for its poor showing in the first two Tests at Galle and Colombo from seemingly winning positions. Critics like former Pakistan captain Inzamam-ul-Haq and ex-Test pacer Sarfraz Nawaz are convinced that Pakistan lost because some of the senior players intentionally under-performed to bring Younis' downfall.

Younis, however, rubbished such claims.
