The player is the body, and the coach is the soul. So, the coach should know the player like the soul knows the body,\u201d Saqlain said.<br \/>\n\u201cIt is important for a coach to understand everything about the player \u2013 his emotions, his thoughts, his approach \u2013 before going into technical details. If a coach doesn\u2019t understand his player\u2019s mind, then he won\u2019t be able to get the best out of the player.\u201d He added.<br \/>\n\u201cPlayers are giving their all, their heart and soul, in the field, during practice [sessions] and matches. I will give a lot of credit to them,\u201d Saqlain said.<br \/>\n\u201cI am enjoying my time with the Pakistan team as head coach. It is always an honour to serve your country. Every day is a new day and I start my day with thoughts of serving Pakistan cricket and the players.<br \/>\n\u201cI prefer empowering players and I let them express their mind after telling them about the options.
