After losing Test series against South Africa, Pakistan failed to win the series even against Zimbabwe. This is why Whatmore has lost sympathies of his ardent supporters, but also of team players.
According to sources in the know, now Whatmore is not taken seriously in team meetings and even ridiculed sometimes. The reason is the PCB is now favouring seniors and ignoring the coach.
The sources said Saeed Ajmal’s recent statement, after which he had to apologise, was because of the environment created by the seniors.
It is about sure that the board is no more interested to retain Whatmore as coach. And if Pakistan failed to win against South Africa, then chances are high that he would be removed before time.
