Pakistan Cricket: What’s the matter? Pre-Cricketer separated PCB to appoint Azhar Mahmood as interim test coach

Former Pakistan cricketer Kamran Akmal has made a great attack on the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) to appoint Azhar Mahmood as the interim coach of the Test team. “I don’t just understand the logic behind this decision,” Akmal said on the Youtube show ‘The Game Plan’ podcast.“This is exactly the same when PCB allowed the Mickey Arthur Director of Cricket to continue working with a county team. “I couldn’t understand it then, and I can’t understand it anymore,” he said. Azhar Mahmood is the seventh Test head coach of Pakistan from former Pakistan all -rounder 2021. He will take over from Akib Javed.

“That role (Arthur) continues, and it has brought many issues in Pakistan cricket. The same thing is now happening with interim coaching setup. Earlier, it was Aakib Javed, then Mohammad Hafze and now Azhar, ”said Akmal.He said, “These decisions reflect the lack of seriousness. When the PCB starts thinking seriously and starts working professionally, he will not have to make such compromises or temporary appointments,” he said.Since Azhar’s appointment is only interim, Pakistan will launch the new World Test Championship (WTC) cycle under some unstable circumstances. In the last WTC cycle, they finished at the bottom of the table, managing only five wins in 14 matches. After the series against Sri Lanka, his next challenge will be England’s three-examination tour-his only three-match series in this WTC cycle and his first Test tour of England since 2020.“Everyone has been happy, and now Azhar has also been rewarded. If you have made him an head coach, give him full time and responsibility. Otherwise, what is the matter?” Akmal said.
