Waqar Younis may become Australia’s new bowling coach – Cricket News Update
Former Pakistan captain and coach, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Australia-c746 (CA).
The Kangaroos are without a bowling coach at the present moment as former Test cricketer, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Craig-John-McDermott-c51704, resigned from the post earlier this year.
Since the last one year, a number of young Australian fast bowlers have come through the ranks of domestic cricket and their future looks bright in international cricket. However, most analysts believe that the young guns like http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Iftikhar-Ali-Khan-Pataudi-Nawab-of-c64075 Cummins
and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mitchell-Aaron-Starc-c76392 need proper guidance to achieve success at the highest stage of the game.
Former Australian fast bowler, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/A-Mentor-c41238, who himself has played a lot of international cricket.
“With so many young guys coming through the system, I think you need someone who has played international cricket and who can teach them the stuff in the middle more than the technical stuff, how to get people out. That was one of the great bonuses with
Craig,” Bichel said last month.
Bichel is currently the bowling coach of Chennai Super Kings and his franchise qualified for the final of the fifth season of the Indian Premier League (IPL), however, they failed to defend the title for the third time in a row. The former cricketer refused
to take over the role with the Australian team last year because he could not spend too much time away from home.
Waqar, on the other hand, is considered to be one of the greatest fast bowlers of modern-day sport and also enjoyed a fair bit of success with the Pakistan team as a coach and a bowling mentor.
The former http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Shahid-Afridi-c2482, the then captain of the Green Shirts.
The job with CA suits him more as the legendary cricketer is based in Sydney since his marriage. A former Australian fast bowler, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Jason-Neil-Gillespie-c66461 is another strong candidate to replace McDermott.
Australia’s next assignment is in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/MJ-Clarke-c1978 and company will play a limited-over series later this month.
