Younis, Misbah Among Five Mentors Appointed For Champions Cup
Champions One Day Cup: Waqar Younis, Misbah-ul-Haq, Saqlain Mushtaq, Sarfaraz Ahmed and Shoaib Malik have been appointed as mentors for the five Champions Cup sides on three-year contracts.
Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) said the five mentors’ first assignments will be the Champions One Day Cup, set to begin at Iqbal Stadium in Faisalabad from September 12-29. The PCB, though, didn’t say a word on why Younis is a mentor in the Champions Cup and what happens to his role as cricket affairs advisor to Chairman Mohsin Naqvi.
The newly-created Champions Cup will see Pakistan’s top men’s players feature in the single-league competition, as Faisalabad hosts senior men’s domestic games after nearly two years. The last domestic men’s 50-over match played at the Iqbal Stadium was in March 2022 between Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. PCB added names of the sides and squads for the Champions Cup will be confirmed in due course.
