Interested candidates must have played at least 50 Tests for their country. According to an insider Azhar Ali is the frontrunner for the post as he has also expressed his interest in working with the junior level players and improving the system. 

“Another former captain, Mohammad Yousuf is also keen on working in this position and was one reason why he resigned as national selector,” the insider said. The PCB has created the new post to ensure the appointed candidate will work from the U-13 to U-19 levels.
