KARACHI: Pakistan batting coach and former cricketing great Younis Khan singled out fast-rising paceman Jofra Archer as a"major threat" in his team's forthcoming matches against England.

"He has bite in his bowling and his high arm action is very good and gives him nip in his bowling," he added.But Younis - himself playing a key role in Pakistan's 2-2 series draw in England in 2016 with a double hundred in the last Test at The Oval -- said Barbados-born Archer can be countered. Pakistan's highest Test run scorer with 10,099, Younis said Pakistan should also be cautious of England's most experienced bowlers - James Anderson and Stuart Broad.

Pakistan need to score 300-350 in the first innings, in order to challenge England in bowling, the coach said.
