BIRMINGHAM, England (AP) — Pakistan interim red-ball cricket coach Mike Hesson believes his players are more used to the “chaos” than him after the Pakistan Cricket Board dropped seven players for next week’s dead rubber against England. “The last couple of days have been challenging for being in a hotel with some players coming, some players going and then the arrival of everyone,” Hesson told reporters on Friday. “The guys are probably more used to a little bit of chaos than I am,” he said. “There’s no doubt they have been disappointed, incredibly disappointed. We’ve had to park that and go ‘righto, where to from here?’ They’ve been really good over the past couple of days.” Pakistan made sweeping changes in a knee-jerk reaction to its two brutal defeats at Lord’s and Headingley in the first two tests of the three-match series. The PCB not only summoned back seven players, it also replaced test coach Sarfaraz Ahmed with Hesson and brought in bowling coach Ashley Nofke to take over from Umar Gul.
