He is the 10th coaching appointment Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) have made since 2020.

Pakistan have gone the way of split coaching in the past couple of years. Gary Kirsten was appointed as white ball head coach last year, with Jason Gillespie taking over the red ball formats. However, both coaches quit before the end of the year citing differences. Pakistan have not had a coach in red ball cricket since December, with Aaqib Javed filling for the series against South Africa and West Indies.
