Waqar likely to be appointed as Pakistan bowling coach
Former captain and fast bowler Waqar Younis appears set to be appointed as the new bowling coach of the national team after the five-member panel of the Pakistan Cricket Board began interviews of the candidates on Thursday.
Waqar's chances of being named bowling coach appeared strong after another former Test bowler Muhammad Akram withdrew his application while the PCB panel, headed by Intikhab Alam, did not invite another former Test pacer Jalaluddin for the interview process.
Jalaluddin, who is a qualified level four coach, was obviously not happy with the treatment meted out to him and said while it was PCB's prerogative to appoint anyone they wanted but he met all the qualifications asked for by the Board for the bowling coach's position.
"If they treat their master coaches like this and ignore and disgrace them, then Pakistan cricket will not move ahead," Jalaluddin told reporters in Karachi.
The PCB's panel also began interviewing of candidates for the position of head coach.
