Former Pakistani cricket Aamir Sohail has said that Misbah-ul-Haq is clearly the best person to lead the national team, with the Pakistan Cricket Board having no other better option.

According to the Daily Times, Sohail thought the lack of options was due to limited club cricket being played in Pakistan, and said that the country needed to improve its schools, colleges, universities and club cricket to get better players in the future.

The former player also talked about the coaching staff associated with the team and said immediate changes were needed in the staff.

Sohail added that the PCB should sit together and think about the changes, but hoped that the team would perform well against the West Indies.
