Melbourne: Rating the high-voltage India-Pakistan cricket rivalry as “10 Ashes series wrapped in one”, Pakistan’s new coach Geoff Lawson has said he planned to call up compatriot Greg Chappell to know about the pitfalls of coaching in the sub-continent.
The former fast bowler of Australia said his first major test at the helm of Pakistan will be the tour of India in November-December this year.
“The biggest series of the decade happens in India. Australia might be number one and to beat them would be fantastic, but to beat India in India, it’s about 10 Ashes series wrapped in one. It’s like another war over there,” he said. “I think the Indian experience is a little different to Pakistan, but I’ve got Greg on my list to call,” Lawson was quoted by The Sunday Telegraph. — PTI
