He has been part of the domestic set-up since 2012. He is presently the batting coach for his side too.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">He had been in good form last year playing for Kowloon CC in the Hong Kong Premier League one-day tournament where he scored 160 runs in five matches which included two fifties.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&quot;I&#39;m there to mentor them as I have done for so long,&quot; Campbell was quoted as saying by a sports website.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&quot;It has been a while (since I played international cricket), but if you look at my numbers I think I&#39;m still one of the best batsmen in Hong Kong. Brad Hogg is still going around for the Scorchers and I must admit he&#39;s inspired me a bit to say age is just a number.&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Hong Kong coach Simon Cook believes Campbell&#39;s experience would help Hong Kong deal with pressure situations which would come in plenty during the World T20.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&quot;His form in Hong Kong has been good in Premier League and Sunday games for Kowloon Cricket Club,&quot; Cook said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&ldquo;One of the things that we learned about our last World T20 tournament is that having that ability to think clearly in high pressure situations is critical and Ryan&#39;s experience will be an enormous help in that regard.&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Agency.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n",
