Overview

  • Jason Gillespie, who resigned as Pakistan's Test head coach in late 2024, has stated that the PCB has yet to clear his unpaid salary months after his departure.
  • Gillespie and Gary Kirsten both stepped down after the PCB removed their authority over team selection, citing governance disputes and communication failures.
  • Gillespie accused the PCB of failing to consult him on key decisions, including the appointment of Mohammad Rizwan as captain, which he claims disrupted team unity.
  • The PCB has opened applications for the national team's head coach and High Performance Centre director roles, with a May 5 deadline for submissions.
  • Aaqib Javed continues as interim head coach across all formats, but sources suggest he may prefer a role at the High Performance Centre instead of continuing as head coach.
