Criticism for Woolmer

While its hard to say whether this criticism would have come if the tour of England had been more successful, and things were more stable in the upper echelons of the PCB, Woolmer has come for a fair bit of stick at the recent discussion forum held by the PCB. Some of the criticisms are the same old, same old, about his ability to deal with players who's English skills are limited, but some are more sticking: the poor performance of the side on foreign wickets since 2004, specially in Australia and England; the difficulties in improving the fielding abilities of the Pakistani side desite many different methods tried and his inability to find and hone a first rate opening pair. With all of this, it is pretty clear that Woolmer is not the man who can make these things come to pass, as with 3 years on the job, he has definitely had enough time.
