Miandad criticizes PCB for appointing young coaches  

Former cricket stalwart Javed Miandad lashed out at the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) for appointing young coaches with the national team, reported the 24NewsHD TV channel.  

Talking to media persons on Tuesday, cricket legend Javed Miandad emphasized the importance of maintaining a balance in age representation between coaches and players.

Miandad argued that if there is no age distinction, there won't be respect, and this lack of respect would compromise the dignity of the coaches.  

He particularly pointed out the removal of Babar Azam from the captaincy, stating that the decision was made by individuals who lack cricketing sense.

“There was no need to remove Babar from the captaincy. They have acted in haste and in the process also shown no respect for a player like Babar,” Miandad added.

Miandad suggested that Sarfraz Ahmed should be the captain for the upcoming series against Australia.

According to him, the team needs someone like Sarfraz, who has the experience and cricketing knowledge to lead against formidable opponents.

Expressing concern over the trend of appointing foreign coaches for the national team, Miandad criticized the practice, labeling it as an insult to senior cricketers in the country.

He questioned whether our seasoned players are incapable of learning the intricacies of cricket and expressed disappointment at the need for foreign coaching.
