Gary Kirsten has resigned as head coach for Pakistan’s ODI and T20 teams, just six months after joining in April 2024. His departure comes before a key tour to Australia. Reports suggest Kirsten felt sidelined in team selection and captaincy decisions, leading him to step down. The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is expected to release a statement soon. Kirsten’s exit could affect team morale as they prepare for Australia, and the new selection committee now faces the task of finding a replacement and preparing the squad.
