The emphasis should always be on merit. Hiring someone without the necessary qualifications or experience, especially for the role of head coach, is not a professional approach.

---------------------------------

Aaqib Javed speaking during an interview:

"It's not about jealousy, it's about mindset. If you look at the past 10-12 years, apart from Mickey Arthur, PCB has not hired any professional coach. In the entire world, when there is an advertisement for coaching, the first requirement is usually a Level 3 plus qualification, followed by 4-5 years of international experience,”

“PCB hires a person first and then the advertisement comes according to that person. So when you don't correct your advertisement, then anyone can apply, then what is the criteria?"

"I have always said that you should create merit and make decisions based on it. Without any qualification, without any experience, if a person has not coached for a single day, you hire him as head coach. This is not criticism, this is saying that you should do your job professionally,"

"This PSL season was not commendable in any aspect. If you look at the standard of cricket, if you look at the standard of pitches, if you look at the crowd involvement, then this time you didn't see anything,"
 
No mention of why his side ended up as the first one to be knocked out!
 
Tbf there has been a lot of criticism of PSL this season but Aqib should be the LAST person to comment on the standard here.
