Mohammad Yusuf appointed as permanent batting coach of Pakistan cricket team

Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has appointed former batting great, Mohammad Yousuf, as the national team’s permanent batting coach.

Yousuf was named temporary batting coach for the home series against Australia by the cricket board and is currently with the national team in Sri Lanka.

The cricket board released him from his position as a batting coach at the National High-Performance Center Lahore earlier this week, and the position of new batting coach for the NHPC will be advertised soon.

It is worth noting that Yousuf was appointed as batting coach for the National High-Performance Center Lahore in August 2020, but he will now serve as a permanent batting coach for the national team.

Earlier this month, the cricket board expressed the desire to appoint former Australian opener, Matthew Hayden, as a batting consultant for the upcoming T20 World Cup.
