"I remember an incident in Brisbane, during the breakfast time, I tried to give him (Younis Khan) a bit of batting advice, not that my career was anywhere near his career, but he did not take kindly to my advice and brought a knife to my throat, with Mickey Arthur (then Australia coach) sitting alongside and then he had to intervene," Flower said Following on Cricket Podcast.
"That's part of the coaching job and it makes it a hell of a journey," he added.
