Last month, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) appointed legendary cricketer Mohammad Yousuf as the head coach of the national U-19 team.
On this occasion, Yousuf had expressed his gratitude to PCB management committee chairman Zaka Ashraf for appointing him as the head coach of the national U-19 team.
Yousuf had vowed to utilise his experience of working with senior teams for the U-19 team, which will pave the way for the young players to rise on the international level.
