Wasim Akram Rejects Pakistan Coaching Role | Dubai News

Wasim Akram, cricket’s legendary fast bowler, reiterates his refusal to coach Pakistan’s national team, citing the unbearable pressure and media scrutiny that come with the role—especially when losses occur. He argues coaches are unfairly blamed while players escape similar criticism, a stance reinforced by how former teammates like Waqar Younis were treated post-coaching. Though he won’t take the head coach job, Akram remains open to volunteering at training camps or tournaments, preferring to support Pakistan cricket without the spotlight and accountability of full-time leadership.
