PAK vs AUS: Pakistan’s stint with the great coach Gary Kirsten seems to be very short-lived, as the veteran looks to step down from the role. However, the official confirmation on the same is yet awaited.
However, this has highly been on the rise since Kirsten, the legendary player from South Africa, has a bunch of records as a coach from lifting the rise of cricket in South Africa while he has been an Asia Cup and World Cup winner with the Indian team. It is speculated that he won’t travel with the Pakistan team to Australia.
There has emerged a serious disagreement between the PCB and head coach Gary Kirsten. Kirsten went on to suggest David Reid as a high-performing coach, while the PCB didn’t land the proposal well and rather suggested alternatives that didn’t seem acceptable to Kirsten.
The Cricbizz side has directly waited for an appeal from the end of Kirsten, though he has not given a definitive response for the same, though it remains confirmed that he won’t travel to Pakistan with the side.
With the deterioration of Pakistan in limited-overs cricket, Pakistan sports media have reported a probable exit of Gary Kirsten. With the Champions Trophy being not far away, PCB might soon be looking to be in the hunt for a new coach. One of the major choices for the red-ball team, Jason Gillespie, can be seen in a double-up role for white-ball games as well.
Pakistan have announced Mohammad Rizwan as their skipper
Pakistan Cricket Board went on to declare their squad for the upcoming white-ball tour to Australia as well as Zimbabwe, which marked many significant changes to their squad.
Likes of veteran Pakistani cricketer Babar Azam have been dropped from the Zimbabwe side, which seems very disgusting for his fans as he faced immense trolling over social media.
Mohammad Rizwan has been announced as the new skipper for Pakistan in white-ball cricket, which was announced by Mohsin Naqvi later yesterday after announcing the squads. Salman Ali Agha will be seen in the role of a vice-captain.
Kirsten, on the other hand, might be seen making his return to the IPL, as his experience is often honoured by several global franchises. Though nothing seems imminent as of now.
