Pakistan Set To Appoint Sarfaraz Ahmed As Head Coach For Test Team: Report
The post was vacant since December last year when Azhar Mahmood ended his contract —due to run until March 2026 — but with no Tests in the calendar until March-April next year, after an agreement with PCB. Now Sarfaraz Ahmed is looking set to take over the mantle, Telecom Asia Sport said in a report.
“Sarfaraz has been spoken to by Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Mohsin Naqvi to take over as head coach of the Test team, and he has agreed to work with Shan Masood as captain, as the two are good friends and can help Pakistan improve their ninth place in the last World Test Championship,” sources told Telecom Asia Sport.
