Whatmore arrives for Pakistan coach talks
Dav Whatmore, the man tipped to become Pakistan's next cricket coach, arrived for an interview in Lahore Saturday, moving a step closer to taking the sport's hot seat.
The 57-year-old former Australian batsman, who coached Sri Lanka to World Cup glory in 1996, is the favourite to replace Waqar Younis who quit the post in September last year over health issues.
Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) appointed former opener Mohsin Khan as an interim coach against Sri Lanka and Bangladesh but had to extend his stint in charge for the series against England as the selection process was delayed.
Pakistan take on England in the first of three Tests in Dubai from Tuesday. The Tests will be followed by four one-day and three Twenty20 internationals. A new coach will take over during the Asia Cup in Bangladesh in March.
