Coaches make little to no impact at the top level but they have to live and die by the results.
You remembered my arguments with people on here because that 1st line rings a very loud bell. No coach can teach intelligence and some of the bowling has been dumb. If SSA can't see that right handers are standing on leg stump, waiting for the full ball, then there isn't much hope.
That’s correct but there has to be a system of accountability. Otherwise you will have the same coach keeping his job forever because he is not responsible for the elementary errors.
More and more support staff is the current trend, its a trend that started in the late 90s and has continued to this day. Good bowlers figure it out, and actually by figuring out gives them resilience in tough situations when they are under the cosh. Morne or anyone else will make no difference. The gap between domestic cricket and international cricket is big in all countries but ours is the size of the Atlantic ocean. We then pick players who have played against other dreadful players and it takes them years to adjust, by the time they have adjusted mentally,they get injury or are just too old.
The whole Mickey Arthur as a part time coach still makes absolutely zero sense to me. Grant Bradburn can be a fine head coach but right now there's too many cooks in the kitchen.
i dont rate any of the coaches we have at the moment. Saqlain mushtaq and his coaching staff did a better job than these jokers and got paid 100 times less than these craps. We neeed a high IQ strict no crap talking coach like ravi shastri, jonathan trott doing a class job or etc
Yes, I don't think Morne has made any great improvement with our bowlers. It is likely that we see him get replaced after the World Cup.
What do you expect with a board like the PCB and a captain like Babar. Impossible to achieve anything.
He himself failed with flying colors in his own capacity. He is responsible for the performance of Pakistani fast bowlers and they were awful.
Umar Gul is likely to replace him for the Australian tour.
Well tbh we have struggled there for decades, I don't think he can make an immediate impact and judging him on a known nightmare tour would be unfair.
For the Australian Test series, I would rope in or at least try to rope in a fast bowler (whatever the nationality) who has actually performed well in Australia.
True, there are probably better coaches out there as far as the Australia challenge is concerned.
Agreed, or someone who was not a natural fast bowler.
100%
He had very good bowling career i don't know whether it's right to criticize him on basis of six months.
You have said it correctly. He just doesn't want to face the media and talk about his failed strategy for our bowling department throughout his tenure. I didn't see any serious intent or response from his end. I think he was just here to make money. But yes, he was better than Waqar Younis as a bowling coach.
What I also meant to say was that he doesn’t want to even enter Pakistan
A teach can do so much. If the student is dull it's not teacher's fault.
A teacher can only be judged by the performance of the students.
Technical coaches are great for developing players but when you’ve already got the cream of the crop in front of you there isn’t much you can do bar a tweak here and there which other coaches can also do.
That is hilarious. Umar Gul was a good t20 bowler at best. Got carted around other formats. Our who team is in limbo no desire to train hard
I used to think similarly but often our bowling completey and utterly capitulated, particularly in big tournaments and away tours. You must also remember that they are relatively young and inexperienced. It would be different if we had a seasoned attack in their 30s with many years and miles under their belt.
I disagree in my opinion Shaun Tait was working well with the pacers and Saqlain was working well with spinners we were not that bad.. overall pcb's managerial politics and constant chopping and changes affected the team as well
How many international wickets Shaun Tait have?
100% pakistani culture is a different to countries like England, Australia, South Africa etc..
And he too will make no difference. Players should have people they can talk to if they need some advice but as a general role its a total waste of time. Players improve by analysing their own bowling and making adjustments.
