Jason Gillespie ha sido nombrado entrenador en jefe de Pakistán para todos los formatos después de que Gary Kirsten renunciara como entrenador de pelota blanca.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has refused claims of replacing Jason Gillespie as the head coach with Aaqib Javed. Shortly after reports suggested that the ex-Australian pacer was replaced by the former Pakistan star, the PCB took to social media to offer a clarification. Gillespie was named the stand-in coach following Gary Kirsten’s resignation as the white-ball coach earlier.
Pakistan confirm Gillespie as coach for SA series
Reports had claimed that Aaqib Javed – who was appointed as Pakistan’s selection committee head in September, is most likely to succeed Jason Gillespie as the head coach across all formats of the game. The report had claimed that Gillespie’s replacement is expected to be announced on Monday, just on the day when Australia are taking on Pakistan in the 3rd T20I. Mohammed Rizwan and co. are already on the backfoot, given that they are already 2-0 down in the series.
Latest news
Gary Kirsten lasted only six months as Pakistan’s white-ball coach. His first big event – the T20 World Cup – saw Pakistan exit at the group stage of the tournament, suffering losses against USA and India. Jason Gillespie, on the other hand, has just recently tasted success after facing a loss in his first Test series as coach against Bangladesh. Kirsten reportedly stepped down from his position after allegedly having heated discussions with the board and the selection committee. It is pertinent to point out that he was not in Pakistan when Mohammad Rizwan was announced as the new white-ball captain.
