Pakistan cricket seeks fielding coach on LinkedIn, fans react with nepotism jokes
Pakistan's cricket administration recently posted a job listing for a fielding coach on LinkedIn, drawing humorous reactions from fans. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) advertised the position on August 31, seeking a coach with experience in red- and white-ball cricket to enhance the team's fielding skills. The requirements included a Level II Cricket Coaching Accreditation and a minimum of five years' experience in a similar role.
Candidates should also possess a strong understanding of fielding techniques, game analysis, player development, and modern coaching systems. The job posting sparked jokes about nepotism and alleged influence in the hiring process, with some social media users suggesting the PCB should recruit retired military personnel instead. The PCB stated that interested candidates could apply through their website by September 9.
