Arthur says what Derbyshire have demanded of him as a coach has been “fantastic” after years spent in charge of national sides.<\/p>\n

Before moving to the County Ground, the last time he worked at club level outside of a T20 franchise was at Western Australia in 2011.<\/p>\n

“I’ve had to self-reflect and change my style a little bit because coaching internationally and coaching domestically has been a little bit different, which I didn’t think it would be,” he said.<\/p>\n

“I’ve had to change a lot of the ways I handle the squad and different situations. <\/p>\n

“In a nutshell it has taken a little bit longer, but it is a process of continually improving. And if you continue to self-improve – that’s myself, the coaching staff and the players – you will ultimately achieve what you want to.”<\/p>\n

Even while in charge of Derbyshire, Arthur has stayed in touch with the international game, juggling a short second stint with Pakistan in 2023.<\/a><\/p>\n

This season he is combining his role at Derbyshire with that of director of cricket at Hundred side Northern Superchargers.<\/a><\/p>\n

Arthur landed those other roles despite Derbyshire’s struggles of recent years, which last season prompted the club’s chief executive Ryan Duckett to come out and back the head coach.<\/p>\n

“I’m here until the club say to me, ‘not any more’. That is how hellbent I am on achieving success,” Arthur replied, when asked about what his plans for his future at Derbyshire are.<\/p>\n

“I’ve had the fortune and opportunity to coach a lot of teams, and a lot of good teams and this is one that I’m very passionate about and one that I’m absolutely adoring because it’s like taking the underdog to the top.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
