Mickey Arthur, former coach of Pakistan cricket team and current coach of Sri Lankan team, says that I have a deep commitment and attachment to Pakistan, but at the moment I am related to the rival side.
He said that the impression that some players could not be a part of the Pakistan team is not correct because of me. No competition from Misbah-ul-Haq, as the coach of the Pakistan cricket team thought of improvement, there is talent among the players in the visiting Sri Lankan team.
Mickey Arthur said that every moment of the three years spent with Pakistan is memorable and memorable, Pakistan team has a place in my heart. I thought, I have not closed the doors of Pakistan team on any player, there is no like or dislike in cricket.
The former Pakistani coach said that the coach takes into consideration the performance in the selection of the player, it is not true that some players could not be part of the Pakistan team because of me, I tried to improve the performance of the Pakistan team, now I accept a new challenge. As far as Misbah-ul-Haq is concerned, no rivalry, I respect him a lot and there is no tension between us, it was good to see him as a rival in the series.
Mickey Arthur said that Sri Lanka is a good team and they have talented players, they will try to perform well in the Karachi Test.
He further said that Abid Ali and Babar Azam batted well in the Rawalpindi Test, I am happy that Test cricket has started in Pakistan, Fawad Alam is a talented cricketer but he could not get a place in the Pakistan squad for ten years, not only me. Rather, he could not be selected during the periods of other coaches.

Analysis: Mickey Arthur’s Loyalty and Commitment Put to the Test
In a recent statement, Mickey Arthur, the former coach of the Pakistan cricket team and current coach of the Sri Lankan team, expressed his deep commitment and attachment to Pakistan, despite being associated with a rival team [[no reference]]. This statement comes at a time when Arthur’s tenure as Pakistan’s team director has unraveled, with reports suggesting that he had to balance his contract with Derbyshire, which led to him being unavailable during critical international tours [[1]]</a.
Arthur’s comments highlight the complexities of loyalty and commitment in the world of sports, where coaches and players often find themselves at the helm of rival teams. While Arthur may have a deep attachment to Pakistan, his current role as Sri Lanka’s coach puts him in a position where his interests may be at odds with those of his former team.
Interestingly, Arthur also addressed the notion that some players may have been excluded from the Pakistan team due to his presence, stating that this is not accurate [[no reference]]. This assertion is significant, given that Arthur’s time with Pakistan was marked by notable successes, including the team’s victory in the 2017 ICC Champions Trophy [[3]]</a.
Arthur’s comments also allude to the fact that he may not have received the same level of competition from Misbah-ul-Haq, who succeeded him as coach [[no reference]]. While this statement is somewhat cryptic, it may suggest that Arthur feels his legacy as Pakistan’s coach has been misunderstood or underappreciated.
In a recent interview, Arthur also expressed his disappointment with the current state of Pakistan’s cricket, stating that the country’s cricket is in a “very disappointing place” [[2]]</a. This sentiment is likely to resonate with fans and observers of Pakistan's cricket team, who have witnessed a decline in the team's fortunes in recent years.
Mickey Arthur’s comments offer a glimpse into the complex world of sports, where loyalty and commitment are constantly being tested. While Arthur may have moved on to a new role with Sri Lanka, his attachment to Pakistan remains strong, and his comments will undoubtedly be closely watched by fans and observers of both teams.
