These stints were of short term because Mahmood was contracted as a player with English county club Surrey until July 2016.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Despite his limited experience as a coach, Pakistan can benefit a lot from the veteran pace bowling all-rounder&#39;s experience of playing in England, India, Bangladesh, New Zealand and the West Indies as a T20 specialist after his international retirement in 2007.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Pakistan will play two Tests against the Kiwis in Christchurch and Hamilton.<\/p>\r\n",
