Karachi: With Pakistan receiving a complete drubbing in Sri Lanka, lobbies supporting captain Younis Khan and the team management of coach Intikhab Alam and manager Yawar Saeed are preparing for a showdown when the team returns home.
According to Pakistan Cricket Board sources, losing the Test and One-day series in Sri Lanka would mean heads would roll when the team returns home later this month and both the lobbies want to ensure that their men are not removed.
Already a propaganda campaign has been launched by some people in the board saying that Younis is responsible for the team's poor performance in Sri Lanka.
"This lobby is saying that Younis is running a one-man show in the team and that he does not allow anyone to speak at the team meetings and takes all the decisions himself," one source said.
"Plus he does not consult the coach or manager in anything," the source added.
Younis, on the other hand, has indicated that he is not getting enough support from the management and he wants a different selection system for the team on tour.
Meanwhile, another lobby was propagating that when the team returns home, the coach and manager would be changed.
"Obviously there will be pressure on the board to do something and there is also pressure from governing council members to remove Intikhab and Yawar Saeed as they are too old," the source said.
Heads would definitely roll and the team management, including the captain, coach and manager will have to do lot of explaining, he added.
"(PCB) Chairman Ejaz Butt has made it clear that he wants the coach and manager to submit their reports as soon as they return home," the source said.
Intikhab was brought in as coach last November soon after Butt took over as Chairman and it was on the basis of his report that the board had removed Shoaib Malik as captain in February and brought in Younis.
