PCB starts hiring process for white-ball coaches with ICC Champions Trophy in mind

The Champions Trophy 2025 will be the first ICC to be held in Pakistan since the 1996 ODI World Cup.

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has started the hiring process for Pakistan’s men’s cricket team’s coaches. They already have Jason Gillespie and Gary Kirsten as head coaches of the Test and ODI-T20I teams and Tim Nielsen as a high-performance coach, but they are looking for a fielding, mental performance, and special skills coach.

Champions Trophy, a priority

Simon Helmot and David Reid were Pakistan’s fielding and mental performance coaches for the T20 World Cup, but these positions are up for grabs at the moment. These two coaches will be part of all three formats, while the special skills coach is only required for white-ball cricket. 

The PCB is currently preparing for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, and renovations are going on at two of the three venues selected for hosting the tournament. The hiring of a special skills coach indicates that they want to bolster their team for the first ICC event they will host since 1996. 

The applicants interested for the roles can submit their applications until September 4.

Pakistan women’s team head coach

The PCB is also looking for a head coach for the women’s cricket team. Muhammad Wasim who’d assumed the role for the Women’s Asia Cup in Sri Lanka in late June but the board is now looking for a permanent solution. The deadline for applying for the position is also September 4.
