Islamabad: These days the Pakistan cricket team is performing disappointingly at home. They have faced defeat against England and then New Zealand. Meanwhile, Captain Babar Azam has also been criticized a lot. It has been said in the reports that the captaincy can be taken away from Babar Azam. However, this has not been confirmed yet.

Amidst all this, it is being said in the reports that the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is soon going to appoint former South African legend Mickey Arthur as online head coach. If this happens, Mickey Arthur will be the world's first online head coach. Under this arrangement, Arthur will be available to Pakistani players in online mode, while the rest of the support staff will monitor the players' progress on the field. However, Mickey Arthur will be present with the Pak team during the ODI World Cup to be hosted by India this year. There will be no online coaching at that time. At the same time, Shahid Afridi, the former captain of the Pakistan team, is seen enraged by all these things.

Shahid Afridi was asked a question in the press conference regarding this online coaching. Afridi got angry about this and he said that there is a shortage of people here and that foreigners are being appointed as coaches. Regarding foreign online, Shahid Afridi said, 'I had also read somewhere about online coaching. I do not understand how online coaching will happen. I do not understand this online system.'

Afridi further said, 'Why is this foreign coach needed? There are such people in your country. I know that PCB also sees that our people get involved in politics and likes and dislikes. I understand that there are many people who understand how big the responsibility is.' Afridi said, 'I think good and strong decisions will have to be made in cricket keeping politics aside. Only then your cricket team will be able to go ahead and perform. But it is not necessary that the coach should be from outside. We have people in Pakistan who can lead the team. There is coaching and there is management. It is not a difficult task at all.'
