Furthermore, Pakistan has appointed the South African trio of Mickey Arthur, Andrew Puttick, and Morne Morkel as their team director, batting coach, and bowling coach respectively.
Grant Bradburn who is a New Zealander is the team’s head coach at the moment.
Most of the coaching staff has English-speaking people and that is why I feel there is a communication gap. I think there is a huge communication gap between the players, the coaching staff, and the trainers. Fitness levels also have a role in the performances of the team going down.
Pakistan to face stiff challenge from Australia in Bengaluru
After winning two games on the trot against the Netherlands and Sri Lanka, Pakistan once again fell short against India.

But, they are now facing Sri Lanka and have a good chance of winning today’s game.
Meanwhile, the Australia vs Pakistan game will be a fiercely contested one for fans on both sides.
This game is also a chance for the two sides to increase their chances of going into the semifinals.
