Former Pakistani fast bowler, Mohammad Akram, has slammed the coaching abilities of the interim Pakistani coach, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mohsin-Hasan-Khan-c77595, and feels that the former opening batsman was a successful selector but he does not have the requisite skills to coach an
international team.
Mohsin took over the job after http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Bangladesh-c747 in bilateral series.
However, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is still in the hunt for a permanent coach and it seems former Australian cricketer, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Davenell-Frederick-Whatmore-c52571, is set to become the next Pakistani mentor.
There are some Pakistani cricket analysts who feel that Mohsin should be appointed as the permanent coach, since the team is very comfortable with him and the results so far have been positive.
Akram wrote an article for Pakpassion, where he slammed Mohsin and his coaching abilities, stating that defeating Sri Lanka and Bangladesh is not a big deal as they are not amongst the top teams of the world. He added that he will be exposed in the forthcoming
series against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013 in January, when the two teams play a Test series, followed by One Day International and T20I matches.
Akram said, “Mohsin http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Khan-c71319 is a senior figure for whom I have a lot of respect, but my personal observations during my time in Bangladesh were that his actions were more indicative of a chief selector, a position in which he was successful, rather than a coach.
He's not a capable coach, as to be so you need strategy, planning and I didn't see any of those attributes in him.”
Akram also commented on what the Pakistan team would need against England, who are the No.1 Test team in the world.
“Against England, Pakistan will need meticulous planning, strategy, and fire-power in the middle order. England have a much stronger side, good spinners, a pace attack and their batting is strong too”, he believes.
The England series will be a tough assignment for Mohsin Khan, and if Pakistan can cause an upset, he would silence his critics.
