"He has been given a special assignment for a short period before the start of the World Cup," a Pakistan Cricket Board spokesman said.
Former Pakistan coach Miandad, 55, will not interfere with the work of current boss Dav Whatmore for the September 18-October 7 tournament but will instead concentrate on any individual batting niggles following a series of recent collapses.

Not Miandad, only people like Imran Khan can do some magic. This team is dead like never been.
Miandad is no doubt a batting great! but he cannot and should not function as a coach. The board's insistence on constantly making positions for him is not digestible. Politics in cricket !
Good move
For what did we hire Whatmore!??
Janab Javed Miandad Saab can really assist Pakistani batsmen before World T20. Being a father in law of daughter Janab Daud Ibrahim, he knows the best. Janab Javed Miandad Saab, I am sincerely thanking you in anticipation for cleaning the cricket via your vital personal ties to a King of Cricket Corruption.
Shoib Malik should not be part of pakistan team .His performance is hopeless and disappointing
The one who has never played a T20 in his life .. wow what a move
Forget Miandad... How can anyone assist players like Shoaib Malik?
