Chandigarh: The Punjab Cricket Association (PCA) has decided to appoint Intikhab Alam, former Pakistan coach and manager of 1992 World Cup winning team, as coach of the Punjab Senior team for 2008-2009.
PCA secretary Pandove said Intikhab Alam's name was approved for the coaching assignment by the Administrative Committee of the PCA after 'going into the merits and considering all pros and cons'.
Pandove said the PCA had already sent a formal letter to Alam urging him to join the team from Sept 1.
The Hoshiarpur born ex-Pak captain Alam had earlier worked with Punjab team during the 2004-05 and 2005-2006 season and guided the team to Ranji finals.
The 67-year-old Alam would replace Gursharan Singh under whom the team failed to produce the desired results.
