But we conventional a total of 37 application for the post of Pakistan coach against the ad the Pakistan Board put out for the position. These applications built-in 12 foreigners and 25 locals," Alam said at a press conference.

The PCB had formed a special board, headed by Alam, as well as former players Zaheer Abbas, Colonel Naushad Ali and Rameez Raja to help the Board find a new coach for the national team.
