Yasir Arafat To Serve As Pakistan's Coach In Arthur's Absence: Report

By IANS News February 03, 2023 • 12:04 PM View: 989

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has appointed former player Yasir Arafat as the national team's new bowling coach and will also serve as the head coach whenever Mickey Arthur is not available, according to a news report.

Arthur is set to be unveiled as Pakistan's 'team director' soon and will have the option of choosing when to accompany the team due to his commitment with Derbyshire and his reluctance to take on a full-time coaching role, said the Pakistan Observer newspaper in a report on Friday.
