"Don't See Any Logic Behind...": Javed Miandad Slams New PCB Appointments

Pakistan great Javed Miandad feels Sarfaraz Ahmed was better suited to lead the Test team in Australia than newly appointed Shan Masood. “It is clear that Sarfaraz is a very seasoned cricketer and has done well as captain before for Pakistan and if he had been made captain it would have been vital for the team in Australia which is a tough place to tour." "Sarfaraz Ahmed should not only be included in the team against Australia, but due to his experience, he should have been the captain," Miandad told the media in Karachi. Referring to the appointments of Wahab Riaz as chief selector, Muhammad Hafeez as team director and Umar Gul and Saeed Ajmal as bowling coaches, Miandad said he always felt that there should be a age gap between coaches and players in international cricket.
