The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is making strides in its efforts to enhance the national team’s performance by engaging with several former cricket stars for potential mentorship roles. Sources reveal that the PCB has reached out to notable cricketers such as Shoaib Akhtar, Shoaib Malik, Waqar Younis, Moin Khan, Inzamam-ul-Haq, Mushtaq Ahmed, Younis Khan, Saqlain Mushtaq, and Misbah-ul-Haq.
These discussions are part of a broader initiative to inject experienced guidance into the team, though the final decisions rest with the PCB chairman and the board of governors. PCB Chairman Syed Mohsin Naqvi confirmed that no decision has been made regarding Babar Azam’s role or future with the team. He emphasized that consultations are focused on former cricketers who are genuinely interested in advancing Pakistan cricket.
Naqvi also noted that while identities of all involved cricketers were not disclosed, one former player has already submitted a comprehensive report addressing the weaknesses within Pakistan cricket. This step underscores the PCB’s commitment to leveraging experienced voices to drive improvements in the sport.
