    Abdur Rehman Appointed as Pakistan’s New Spin Bowling Coach Ahead of West Indies Test Series

    Former Pakistan cricketer Abdur Rehman has been appointed as the new spin bowling coach for the national team. The 44-year-old former left-arm spinner brings with him years of experience and a successful international career, having taken 140 wickets across Tests, ODIs, and T20s between 2006 and 2014.

    Currently, the Pakistan team is in Multan, under the leadership of Shan Masood, preparing for the upcoming ICC World Test Championship series against the West Indies. The first match of the two-test series will kick off on January 17, with the second scheduled to start on January 25.

    As part of the preparations, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has confirmed the inclusion of Rehman in the coaching staff. This marks his debut as a spin bowling coach for the men’s national team after previously serving as part of the coaching team for the Pakistan women’s cricket team.

    The national selection committee has named a 15-member squad for the series, which includes three spinners: Nauman Ali, Abrar Ahmed, and Sajid Khan, all of whom will be working closely with Rehman in the lead-up to the series.

    Pakistan Squad for the West Indies Test Series:

    • Shan Masood (captain)
    • Saud Shakeel (vice-captain)
    • Abrar Ahmed
    • Babar Azam
    • Imam-ul-Haq
    • Kamran Ghulam
    • Kashif Ali
    • Khurram Shahzad
    • Mohammad Ali
    • Mohammad Huraira
    • Mohammad Rizwan (wicketkeeper batter)
    • Nauman Ali
    • Rohail Nazir (wicketkeeper batter)
    • Sajid Khan
    • Salman Ali Agha

    With the first Test just around the corner, all eyes will be on how Abdur Rehman can help elevate Pakistan’s spin department and guide them to success against the West Indies.
