PCB look to appoint foreign coaches for T20 World Cup

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), led by new chairman Mohsin Naqvi, is looking to appoint foreign coaches and support staff to guide the national team through to the T20 World Cup scheduled to be held in USA and West Indies in June.

“The new Chairman, Mohsin Naqvi is keen to look at the available coaching options for Pakistan and is more inclined to appoint foreign coaches and support staff,” a well-informed source in the board said.

Naqvi was appointed as PCB chief for a three-year term earlier this month. The source said chief selector Wahab Riaz, who has worked with the chairman as his advisor on sports in the Punjab govt, has been tasked with having initial discussions with prospective candidates.
