South African Arthur is new Pakistan head coach
MICKEY Arthur replaced Waqar Younis as head coach of the Pakistan cricket team yesterday.
The Pakistan Cricket Board said the 47-year-old Arthur, a South African who has previously coached his country’s national team and Australia, will take up his new assignment at the end of the month. Younis quit last month after Pakistan won only one of its four group matches at the World Twenty20 in India. Arthur was among four foreign coaches shortlisted by a panel, including former captain Wasim Akram. He will be the fourth foreigner to coach Pakistan after Richard Pybus, Geoff Lawson and the late Bob Woolmer. Arthur played 110 first-class matches for South Africa before retiring.
