Gary Kirsten, Pakistan’s newly appointed coach, has officially joined the national cricket team in Leeds, just ahead of their highly anticipated four-match T20 series against England starting on May 22. Renowned for his extensive experience and coaching successes with India and South Africa, Kirsten has been enlisted as the white-ball head coach to strengthen Pakistan’s preparations for the upcoming T20 World Cup.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) announced Kirsten’s appointment earlier this month, highlighting his wealth of experience and proven track record in the T20 format. His arrival in Leeds has generated excitement among both players and fans, who are optimistic about his guidance in overcoming the formidable English side. Kirsten’s coaching credentials include leading India to World Cup victory in 2011 and guiding South Africa to the pinnacle of Test cricket. His expertise in T20 cricket is particularly valued, having coached the Gujrat Titans in the Indian Premier League (IPL) this season.
