PCB mulls appointing Shoaib Akhtar as bowling consultant

Doesn't matter who the bowling coach is for the Aus tour. The pak bowlers are in for a hammering. Aus is such a tough place to tour. The 99/00 pak test team was one of the very best pak team in aus and they hot hammered 3-0. No chance for this current pak team and their bowling to have any impact in Aus. On the contrary some careers may actually end after the tour
 
The current lot is running after money playing in every random league. Shoaib Akhtar can ignite the passion to play for the country. He is the most patriotic Pakistani cricketer to play for Pakistan in the 21st century.
 
Every time Shoaib Akhtar speaks on media , particularly on Indian media , I feel embarrassed. I would not give him more importance . He likes to be in lime light all the time . As a coach, he would be talking more on you tube or TV channels than spending time with the team.
 
A major problem with appointing past pakistani players are the temperamental issues they carry with them. Shoaib might be a great thinker of the game, he might have passion and drive to teach the young bowlers all day but how can you forget he beat up a fellow team mate with a "cricket Bat". How can an individual like that be appointed in a position of power to guide young minds who are already immature.

Futhermore there has been no evidence to suggest his persona has changed going by his online videos.
