The Pakistan Cricket Board has decided to end their association with foreign coach Mickey Arthur, a day after Grant Bradburn and Andrew Puttick’s tenure was cut-short. Meanwhile, as per reports, a senior board official said that PCB chairman Zaka Ashraf, and CEO Salman Naseer will negotiate the final settlement.
The trio were informed that their services were no longer needed, once they returned to Lahore, after a vacation. Later, they were also told that they would be working at the NCA, while Mohammad Hafeez would be working with Pakistan team, with a new team of coaches.
But, apparently, the board found out that in the contracts of the three, there was no clause giving them the right to force the trio to work at the NCA permanently as they had signed up to work with the Pakistan team.
“After some consultations since Mickey is already with Derbyshire and Puttick and Bradburn have found new assignments it was decided to end the matter amicably and release them from their contracts,” the official said.
The official went on to say that Puttick, the batting coach found a new contract with the Afghanistan team, whole Bradburn would be coaching Glamorgan.
He conceded the board would be paying some months’ salaries as compensation to the trio
