Afridi for appointment of specialist coaches

Former captain Shahid Afridi has advised the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) to appoint specialist coaches and a powerful manager with the national team instead of a head coach.Afridi said that a powerful manager is the need of the hour for the Pakistan team under whom specialist coaches for batting, bowling and fielding should work. “Not appointing a head coach will be the best decision. There should, instead, be a strong and competent manager along with assistant coaches,” he said.Afridi was of the view that the new formula will help in avoiding controversies.
