Mohsin Khan resigns as Chairman of PCB Cricket Committee, to be replaced by Wasim Khan

Definitely trying to position himself for the role Mickey vacates
 
The fact that he’s resigned and left on good terms with some positive words about Ehsan Mani has given it away :) there’s clearly something lined up.

Mohsin is not a bad choice as coach, not sure why he is disliked , because he’s a sincere, passionate and patriotic guy who is also knowledgeable about the game. If you hear his views as an analyst when Pakistan lose, you can tell he genuinely feels hurt and disappointed. He’s educated and has some principles, so while he might get into conflict with others as he will not compromise on his principles and take a stand, that’s to be respected.

Appointing Ehsan Mani was always going to be disastrous. Yet another example of Imran botching important appointments.

He is a weak character and doesn’t have the strength to keep the likes Mohsin and Inzamam at bay, who smell blood and are angling to replace Mickey after the World Cup.

Selecting this flop actor as Chairman of a useless committee was his first blunder, and there are many, many more to come. He is completely out of his depth.

He was strong enough to be head of ICC finance department for 6 years and president of ICC for 3.
Who do you think should have been in his place

Strong enough. I am surprised you are stating this factoid as if it is a character certificate?

Do you know that ICC president position is given to every country after 3 years period. He just got lucky that he was PCB chairman when Pakistan's turn came.

To be honest Mohsin Khan was hard done by in his last tenure. Under his coaching Pakistan beat Sri Lanka in Sri Lanka, beat Bangladesh in Bangladesh, beat England in England and the only blip was the ODI and T-20 series defeat and the PCB replaced him with Dav Whatmore who ended having an even worse record than him. Mohsin feels that Ramiz motivated by a commission from the PCB recruited Dav Whatmore and had Mohsin replaced.

Pakistan beat sri lanka in sri lanks and england in england? When?
 
I didn't think he would last very long in this role.

Next Head Coach perhaps?
 
Just when you think Pakistan cricket cannot get any worse, now this guy will be the coach and we will fall even further
 
Rameez once said of Mohsin's coaching tenure that "he was on the couch not a coach".

At least Lipton sales would go through the roof.

I mean even a couch can do a better job of team selection than Inzi
 
Mohsin Khan is an outdated dinosaur with no idea how idea how modern cricket is played. When somebody mentioned poor fitness of Pak cricketers on a TV show, he interrupted saying that fitness is exaggerated, what they need is motivation - does he wants cricketers to stop gymming & go to a spiritual guru/motivator now? All he talks about is cricket played in his days not realizing that cricket is drastically different now.
 
Forget about such theories, lets wait be positive guys, Hope he does not find any position in PCB.
 
Seems like users that want Mohsin Khan forget the ODI series that proceeded the Test series v England...

There's a reason why he wasn't selected the first time around.

Right choice is Wasim Akram only others are behind from modern cricket , In addition to that he will be respected by players and will make strong bowling unit + having experience of big matches which he can share with these players , support staff should be Mohammad Yousuf and Saqlain Mushtaq , these can make good game plan

MoYo as support staff 🤦🏽*♂️ Gr8 player but a chaval person
 
May not be coaching, but he will be accommodated within PCB. When have you seen Mohsin resign this graciously before?
 
Passion and patriotism is good but he is too outdated to understand modern day cricket. he'll take us back to the 2000s :dw
 
Coming soon (maybe a few months) to a TV near you - In light of the failures, clearly Wasim Khan is really only a part time FC player, he's not even really Pakistani, so he needs to go!
 
It was funny on show Game on hai when Shoiab Akhtar asked him what he would do if he was given the current team. He started mumbling and clearly lacked any ideas. Finally said hum jo karenge woh TV pe nahi ho sakta,Mental conditioning and all that **.Sad to see.It boils my blood when all these useless excricketers are referred with lofty titles by the Anchor Fakhar

Mohsin tipped for key position as changes imminent post-World Cup

Mohsin tipped for key position as changes imminent post-World Cup

KARACHI: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has been given clear instructions by its patron-in-chief to restore the image of the national team following a spate of disastrous results in the ongoing World Cup in England and Wales.

According to reliable sources, Prime Minister Imran Khan, who skippered Pakistan to their solitary World Cup title in 1992, in his capacity as patron-in-chief of the PCB wants wholesale changes in the team management and the national selection committee in the post-World Cup scenario.

The topmost agenda to be taken up once the national side returns home is to decide the immediate futures of both chairman of the selection committee Inzamam-ul-Haq and head coach Mickey Arthur, who were both appointed in their current positions before Pakistan embarked on the tour of England in 2016.

Insiders confided to Dawn on Saturday that former Pakistan batsman Mohsin Khan — who quit as head of the almost non-functioning PCB cricket committee in midweek — is being strongly tipped to either become chairman of the national selection committee or the head coach.

ARTICLE CONTINUES AFTER AD

Inzamam, Arthur likely to be shown the door

Mohsin, now 64, has in the past held both portfolios. He served as the chief selector from March 2010 before being appointed as an interim head coach in October 2011. Under his charge Pakistan completed a historic 3-0 Test sweep of England in the United Arab Emirates in early 2012.

The PCB regime, then headed by Zaka Ashraf, in the meantime had formed a committee in search of a certified coach and ultimately brought in ex-Australia batsman Dav Whatmore — who had previously coached Sri Lanka, including their 1996 World Cup triumph, in two spells before taking over charge of the Bangladesh team from 2003 to 2007 — for a two-year term.

“The announcement to this effect will be soon made once the patron-in-chief officially approves the appointment,” the sources revealed. “The Prime Minister is a longtime admirer of Mohsin since the days they were team-mates in the 1980s and strongly believes that he is the right person to resurrect the tarnished image of Pakistan cricket given his patriotic nature.”

The sources, meanwhile, said the PM has taken serious notice of the alleged grouping and infighting in the team with some players showing total disregard for Pakistan captain Sarfraz Ahmed for reasons best known to them.

The sources said the premier is in no mood to tolerate the bossy attitude of Inzamam who is reportedly interfering in team selection during the World Cup matches.

“What business Inzamam has to be there [in the UK] in the first place? Social media has highlighted his unjustifiable presence during Pakistan squad’s training sessions,” the sources said. “Have we seen any other chairman of selectors traveling with the team or meddling in the affairs of their respective national sides in the World Cup? The answer is no. Inzamam has obviously imposed himself on the Pakistan team by undermining the status of the captain.

“We all know that Sarfraz comes from a humble background and is finding the going extremely challenging in the current scenario because he’s being not allowed to do things like a captain should. The video clippings aired on social media during in between the match are enough proof of him being downcast and feeling unwanted.

“Judging by the comments of former players it seems everyone wants Sarfraz to be sidelined because some of the agitating players are aspiring to lead Pakistan, and one of them is the mastermind of this anti-Sarfraz lobby within the ranks. When Sarfraz [along with several key players] was rested for the Australia ODI series in the UAE, that same player in connivance with Arthur and Inzamam had already decided on the makeup of the squad for the World Cup.

“But they couldn’t do anything to dislodge Sarfraz from his position because it is the prerogative of the PCB chairman to name the captain. In other words, the squad [for the World Cup] was inconspicuously finalised during that ODI series against Australia and the announcement was just a formality. The fact is that Inzamam is so powerful that even members of the selection committee [Tauseef Ahmed, Wajahatullah Wasti and Wasim Haider] never dare to question his authority,” the sources added.

If its true then welcome back Asad Shafiq and Ahmed Shehzad in ODI :)
 
Recycle. Why can pakistan find a young educated person who loves cricket. I am tired of seeing the same people with the same post
 
NOOO! I really hope this news is false!

If not, then it's time to invest in some tea stocks...
 
Must have had a meeting with PM IK


Begged him to get the head coach role
 
Mohsin is becoming the selector or coach.

Sarfraz is going nowhere, the cause of failures will be kept because he has managed to create sympathy for him through his media cronies and lobbying.

Sarfraz needs to go along with the management.
 
Mohsin in contention for chief selector???

God help us, he was advocating for Asad Shafiq the ODI batsmen on a show the other day :facepalm:
 
Well looks like sipping tea has a domino effect to convince a pack.
 
Its interesting how such news comes up on the eve of important matches.

Its clear there's a lobby within the PCB that is working overtime to undermine the current management.

Unless we get rid of this nonsense and become professional, we will ever be considered serious contenders in cricket.
 
RIP pakistan cricket.....
long live chai.....
Worst time for governance and cricket in pakistan

So a player that played during the Australian series, conspired with Mickey Arthur to sideline Sarfraz?

Surely this is masala, because that player has to be Shoaib Malik.

He was the captain during Australian series, so this article has to be talking about him.

But Malik is on record saying he will retire after this world cup in ODIs.

So this makes no sense, unless he is trying to get t20 captaincy to be in charge of the squad for next years t20 world cup.

However, Malik even stepped down from captaincy from Karachi Kings.

I dont think he wants that added responsibility or pressure when he is already getting a free ride in the squad, even based off zero performances!

This is the tabdeeli we wanted, no?

I'm pretty sure it's happening, Mohsin Khan is imminent.

Ehsan Mani and Imran Khan have managed to ruin us till now when it comes to cricket.
 
Looks like Pak are heading towards minnow status!!

It was during his tenure (along with misbah), where Pak were trashed 4-0 in the ODI series against Eng in the UAE and everything went downhill in ODI's.
 
I honestly don’t care if there’s a grouping against Sarfraz. He’s a rubbish player and doesn’t deserve to lead our nation in cricket.

Seems Mohsin coming back big time!
 
Looks like Naya PCB in Naya Pakistan is all about nepotism. Imran’s con-artistry is on full display.

“Mai cricket ko theek kardunga” he used to say.
 
Can someone please tell me what Mohsin Khan achieved as Pakistan coach in the past?

Why are people getting excited?
 
Mohsin Hasan Khan is a patriot, has no record of corruption and gave it all on the Cricket field. He is also a great motivator, there are roles which he is suitable for and roles which he isn’t. Here is my opinion:

Head Coach/Coaching: Ship has sailed and Cricket has evolved and appointment of Mohsin Hasan Khan in any coaching capacity will result in regression of Pakistan cricket. He should not even be appointed at NCA or Junior level.

Selector: I have been listening to Mohsin Hasan Khan and it is clear that he does not have knowledge of players in the domestic circuit. He struggles with names so he is not suited for this role.

Manager/Motivator: Mohsin Hasan Khan is an ideal fit for this role and in fact he is cut out for this role. He is calm, relaxed and can be a conduit to building good relationships within the team. Traditionally, the job of the Manager is organise coaches/hotels but I would like to see Mohsin Hasan Khan in a “motivational” kind of role.

Chief Selector: If there are competent selectors and scouts who know the domestic scene then Mohsin Hasan Khan can be good in this role because he is neither corrupt, nor someone who will stand for nepotism or favouritism. Mohsin Hasan Khan is strong enough to withstand “Parchi culture” and media pressure as long as others around him are competent and professional enough to do their jobs. He is also great in speaking to those who are selected OR not selected and highlighting reasons for either.

Mohsin Hasan Khan does not tolerate nonsense but he is not abrasive, or crude either and he has qualities which a young emerging team needs.

He is ideal at the Junior level because he is “enough of a player with pedigree” to command respect and has the personal skills to motivate youngsters to work hard. His 200 at Lords and 149 at Adelaide were spectacular performances.

More than anything, this Pakistani team needs to gel together and play as a unit and Mohsin Hasan Khan is the best man for it, as long as he kept out of a Coaching role or even a selector because he does not know the players in the Domestic scene.

Imran Khan needs to rethink what he wants to do in the upcoming three years.

His first year has been a disappointment (considering his big-talks).

If he cannot reform the country, he should atleast reform Pakistani cricket in his tenure.

He talked big but he didn’t do any planning. His entire campaign was built around criticizing others and showing “sabz baagh” without thinking how he would plant the seeds in the first place.

He needs to get his act together quickly because the ship is sinking.
 
So a 3rd grade cheap Bollywood hero will be our coach or selector. I that case any of retired Ranji team coach would have done better job than him
 
What the job of Wasim Khan then if you take unfit players in PCB high positions?

What's your opinion about Mohsin Khan as a chief selector or Coach? What's the job of Wasim Khan then?
 
So Mohsin quit thinking that Pakistan is out of the semi race and he can not get Mickey kicked out. What happens if Pak wins the world cup from here :ma
 
وَتُعِزُّ مَن تَشَاءُ وَتُذِلُّ مَن تَشَاءُۖ

Mickey is honest competent coach .Mohsin sir just sit on tv and do your wrist sitting. Coaching Pakistan is not your profession
 
A few rumours yesterday at Edgbaston that Mohsin will be offered the job of Chief Selector if Inzi is removed after the World Cup.

Here's a thought.
If MK can become selector then why not have an internal PP vote to pick 5 posters for the role of selectors.. Then send it off to the PCB... If he can do it then we here at PP can do it too, only better :)
