Younis Khan - Batting coach performance watch

[The Viper]

Younis Khan was appointed as batting coach for the England series.

However, so far none of the batsman have really shown much improvement.

How is he doing so far?

 

[Thephenom]

As far as batting goes who knows, as far as writing his autobiography during the test series he’s doing great!

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Younus had already said he wasn't going to do much technically, but just be a cheerleader to them motivating them to do well.

So is YK to be blamed or the PCB?

 

[lahoriyah1234]

Oh my god, blaming Younis Khan now. First bringing tried and tested failures like Asad and Azhar and then past out of date Fawad alam. What is younis khan going to teach them he had played with them not long ago. Plus if he tries telling them their ego will come into play, they will learn from an average batsmen like Grant Flower but not the great of the game.

I can understand having Imam - Haider ali sami aslam. But when you have Misbah and he brought failure batsmen like 2 As what do u expect.

 

[lahoriyah1234]

If you can experiment with young bowling attack then why not young batting line up.

 

[Nervesofsteel]

It's his first series. Too early to judge anyone just after one series. He should be given a fair run.

 

[lahoriyah1234]

Had Misbah gone with this line up even if we lost it so what.

Imam
Shan
Babar
Azhar
Haider
Fawad
Rizwan
Fahim
Yasir
Naseem
Shaheen

 

[Fahdi]

You can't do anything with Asad and Azhar at this stage of their careers

 

[Bhaijaan]

He's just started his stint.

Judge him after an year.

Its almost an year now. But we are still seeing failure mentality from him. We say we want to compete with India - Eng and Aus yet we going back to oldies who failed numerous times. It was an ideal opportunity to try Imam and Haider Ali.

 

[topspin]

Precisely this. It's really poor to see a veiled attempt of putting blame on him when he's been given the worst subjects to work with.

 

[lahoriyah1234]

What was Imam ul haq fault for being dropped, bringing abid ali in his place was just Misbah pathetic attitude of going to oldies. Oh my god i wish misbah had never played for Pakistan and now we r suffering from him after shocks. Imam was doing an excellent job as an opener.

 

[Manunited18]

Misbah is possibly the worse thing that could have happened to pakistan cricket, he has a negative mentality and approach

 

[sweep_shot]

Team hasn't done well under him.

Apart from Shan's 150+, nobody else scored a century.

 

[BreadPakoda]

He looks very dedicated. Takes notes during the game. Looks like someone who respects the position of a batting coach. Isn’t this his first international assignment? Give him some time.

 

[Saj]

He's just started his stint.

Judge him after an year.

If he lasts that long, or doesn't walk away.

 

[shamaan]

No.

You cant change a technique within 1 month.

Only buttler and crawley have scored hundreds no one else has

 

[Abdullah719]

 

[Saj]

If he's worked with Azhar Ali on the little changes he has made in the current innings where he's made a century, then that is a good sign.
