Justin Kemp Takes Charge as Head Coach
Justin Kemp is a young man who is endowed with a lot of modern cricketing knowledge to the Rawalpindi franchise. The former South African powerhouse has since the time he retired after a winning playing career established a strong reputation in the field of coaching.
Kemp has also been an aggressive player in a domestic as well as franchise set-up in the world arena. His coaching philosophy is greatly anchored on:
Player Development: This is the development of young talent and realizing their potential on the field.
T20 Preparation in the present-day: The application of data-driven game planning to suit the dynamic character of T20 cricket.
With the Pindiz being one of the two new entrants in the league, Kemp’s immediate challenge will be to unite a freshly drafted squad and establish a winning culture from day one.

The Star-Studded Pindiz Coaching Panel
The Pindiz management have surrounded their new head coach with pure cricketing royalty to make sure that the team has the best available direction:
Bowling Coach – Courtney Walsh: The great West Indies pace bowler comes to the team to spearhead the attack. Having such a huge boost to the franchise is especially with superstar local pacers such as Naseem Shah and Mohammad Amir in the franchise. The experience that Walsh has in death bowling and powerplay execution will be critical.
President and Mentor – Inzamam-ul-Haq: The legendary Pakistan cricketer, former national chief cricket selection officer is a franchise president and mentor with unparalleled local experience and tactical insight.
Strategy Head – Abdur Rehman: Abdur Rehman is known to be a very sharp cricketing mind and will be the strategy head helping Kemp in tactical matchups and in game awareness.
In the hands of Kemp and Walsh in the coaching box, it is apparent that the Pindiz are not intending on simply taking it easy in the league; they are out to win the trophy on their first season in the league.
