Mushtaq bids to explain Pakistan’s nightmare

PAKISTAN assistant coach Mushtaq Ahmed has become the first member of the World Cup party to appear before a performance evaluation committee.

The three-member committee, headed by former Test cricketer Ijaz Butt and including Test cricketers Saleem Altaf and Salahuddin Sallu, began its investigation into the team’s failure on Tuesday by holding their first formal meeting at the board’s headquarters in Lahore.

According to reports, Mushtaq, a former Test leg-spinner, answered a number of questions during an hour-long session.
