DUBAI: As the Pakistan team began its practice session on Friday evening under lights at the ICC Academy, they were greeted by a familiar face. Having flown here for his academy work, former Pakistan allrounder Mudassar Nazar spoke to the players, gathered in a huddle, and later also had one-on-one sessions with them.
The 68-year-old, who scored 4114 runs in 76 [email protected], with 10 hundreds and 17 fifties between 1976-89, and 2653 runs in 122 [email protected], was Pakistan's head coach previously. Having been the interim head coach of UAE a few years back, Nazar has a fair idea of the UAE conditions, and his advice would come in handy for Pakistan.
