Waqar Younis has not ruled out the possibility of applying for another Pakistan cricket job in the future.
This comes after he resigned as the national team’s bowling coach.
His decision to step down came when Misbah-ul-Haq vacated his role as head coach.
However, the 49-year-old said if he feels he is qualified for a job in the future, he will put his name forward.
“Why would I not be interested? It’s my right to apply for the job, if it’s suitable for me, whenever a vacancy arises,” he told Cricket Pakistan.
“If, after the interview process, they [PCB] think I’m good enough, I’m ready to work with them. I’m not someone who will run away.”
Waqar and Misbah’s departure came as a massive surprise to many, especially since the T20 World Cup is right around the corner.
Pakistan will begin their T20 World Cup campaign against India on October 24 in Dubai.
