PCB 'Strongly Refutes' Media Report Claiming Aaqib Javed Replacing Jason Gillespie as Pakistan Cricket Team's Head Coach, Says Australian Will Coach Side for South Africa Tests

Earlier, reports circulated on social media that claimed that Aaqib Javed was to take charge of the Pakistan national cricket team, replacing Jason Gillespie. Earlier this year, Gary Kirsten had resigned as Pakistan's white-ball head coach, which then led to PCB having Jason Gillespie in charge for the tour of Australia.

Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) refuted a media report that claimed Jason Gillespie was set to be replaced by Aaqib Javed as the head of the national team. The former Australian cricketer, who was appointed as Pakistan's red-ball head coach earlier this year, is in charge of the ODI and T20I teams as well during the white-ball tour of Australia. The report stated that Aaqib Javed was set to replace Jason Gillespie and be the Pakistan national cricket team's head coach across formats. The PCB reacted to the story and wrote, "PCB strongly refutes the story. As announced previously, Jason Gillespie will continue to coach the Pakistan side for the two red-ball matches against South Africa."  Aaqib Javed Set To Take Over As White-Ball Head Coach of Pakistan Cricket Team Ahead of PAK vs ZIM ODI and T20I Series 2024.
