Former spinner Abdur Rehman appointed Pakistan's spin bowling coach
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has appointed former Test spinner Abdur Rehman as the spin bowling coach for the national cricket team.
Rehman, a left-arm spinner, had an impressive career from 2006 to 2014, claiming 140 wickets across Test, ODI, and T20 formats for Pakistan.
He has now joined the team in Multan as they prepare for the upcoming Test series against West Indies, reports said.
While he was part of the coaching staff for the Pakistan women’s cricket team earlier, his new appointment marks his first role as a spin bowling coach for the national men’s side.
The Pakistan cricket team, led by Shan Masood, is in Multan for the first Test match against West Indies on January 17.
The selection committee has announced a 15-member squad, including three spinners: Nauman Ali, Abrar Ahmed and Sajid Khan.
