Grant Flower said the "lack of freedom and security aspect" is the most frustrating thing about living in strife-torn Pakistan, where he has served as the national team's batting coach for five years.
Asked what was the most frustrating thing about living in Pakistan during an interview to ESPNcricinfo, Flower replied: "The security aspect and the lack of freedom." The former Zimbabwean cricketer termed the Champions Trophy triumph in 2017, when Pakistan defeated India in the final, his "proudest personal achievement".
In an interview with ESPNCricinfo he was asked, what was the most frustrating thing about living in Pakistan to which Flower replied: “The security aspect and the lack of freedom.” Then he answered to what he won’t miss about working in Pakistan, saying: “Some of the backstabbing by ex-players. And a lot of the politics that happens within the TV channels, the journalists and some of the politics in the PCB itself. I won’t miss those, certainly.”
However, Flower declared that the Champions Trophy triumph in 2017, when Pakistan defeated India in the final, was his proudest personal achievement. He also claimed that opening batsman Babar Azam is the best player that he has ever coached and also singled out Haris Sohail as an “underachiever”. In the end of the interview the younger Flower advised the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) to get a “stronger domestic structure in place” to maximize the potential of the players.
