Which Pakistan Super League franchise has the best coach?

[MenInG]

They come in all different shapes and sizes but Mickey takes my vote

 

[Abdul]

United.

 

[Hasan123]

Multan

 

[Savak]

Have to watch the other teams play atleast once or twice to make a better judgement

 

[Markhor]

The guy who won an ICC tournament and took a team to #1 ranking in two formats.

 

[Mamoon]

With duds like Waqar and Dean Jones, it is certainly not United.

 

[BlueDoritos]

The guy who won an ICC tournament and took a team to #1 ranking in two formats.

That guy have achieved nothing in PSL, not even been a runner up.

 

[BlueDoritos]

People voting for Arthur, who is the coach of the second worst team in PSL history.

 

[Saj]

Moody for me. A master tactician and student of the game.

Would really like him to be Pakistan coach one day.

 

[CricFan2012]

Moody is the obvious answer

Might, just might join BCB - hanging in balance. BCB is delaying till IPL to hook one of Moody or Kirsten; but Moody is probably 1st choice, because of so many Aussie coaches involved in BD cricket, including Hathura.

In my opinion, Mickey Arthur, though i might be biased because he coaches pakistan and he is the more familiar face in recent times. However, I like his style of coaching, his expressiveness and passion for the game. I also like his aggressiveness, and his expectations of other players to play a positive brand of cricket.

 

[hadi123]

Voted Tom Moody.

Dean Jones vs Mickey Arthur? Is Dean better?

Is Dean better? 2nd time he's won now with IU. Better record with his team. Good at identifying talent, Sharjeel, Asif Ali, Talat, Faheem etc. Seems to get more out of his players than Mickey. Better overall tactics. When IU gets into a rut, changes are made to get them out of it (while Karachi often stagnates, relies on the one or two performers performing out of their mind, e.g. Bopara in the past, Afridi etc. And while I get the Pakistani T20 team is doing a great job, kind of feel it's mostly Sarfraz, especially seeing him succeed with Quetta.


Mickey has a poor test record, lost an SL series partly because he didn't pick a 2nd spinner in UAE. And he did the same mistake twice in a row.

Mickey is slow to introduce youngsters/new talent to the team. Took a long time to introduce Fakhar into the team. Took a long time to drop Azhar and Shehzad. Took a long time to introduce Haris into the ODI team.

Mickey has a Champions Trophy under his belt, which you can't take away from him.

Is it me though, but does Dean seem to work with our guys and local Pakistani talent better than Mickey. Of course Mickey is the more accomplished/experienced coach. While I was one who wanted Mickey over Dean Jones in the past citing Dean's inexperience, I feel like I'm kinda regretting it. Dean's doing a fantastic job with IU, and I wonder if he'd do a better job if given the job of Pakistani coach.

Lol I knew this topic will eventually be brought up . Looks like Dean is getting ready for a future National role with that suit and red tie . He sure looks the part for an interview soon .

 

[pakistanigoneaussie]

Yeah wouldnt be surprised if Deano becomes the next Pak coach if Mickey doesn't get his contract renewed. We all know how much he covets it.

I had and still have my doubts, but he will have plenty of votes of confidence now
