Former Pakistan all-rounder said he wants to do coaching in IPL
Would love to work with Mohammed Shami and Umran Malik
New Delhi. The Indian cricket team took a 1-0 lead by registering an innings and 132-run victory in the Nagpur Test against Australia. The Australian team succumbed to the batting and bowling of Team India in just two and a half days. Team India’s fast bowler Mohammad Shami did not get much chance on spinner’s helpful pitch but still he took 3 wickets. The former Pakistan all-rounder who later played for England wants to work in the Indian Premier League along with Mohammad Shammi, Umran Malik and Mohammad Siraj.
Azhar Mehmood while talking to Hindustan Times said, “I share the experience that I have with everyone. I don’t care about anything because sport has no boundaries. I have played for Kings XI Punjab and Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL. I have worked with Mohammed Shami. I remember he had some problem with the seam position and sent me a text message.
The Pakistani all-rounder said that he is always ready to help everyone. It doesn’t matter to them that the player is from which country he plays. Whatever be the relationship between India and Pakistan, but they do not fail to help Indian bowling. He said that he wants to return whatever he has learned while playing cricket.
Mahmood said, “I am still in touch with all the players. Whenever I see Shami and Bhuvneshwar, they come to me and talk about their problems. I have no problem in working with anyone. It didn’t matter whether he was an Indian or a Pakistani or an English man. I am a coach. Cricket has given me a lot and now it is my time to give something back to the game.
