Gary Kirsten steps down as Pakistan's white-ball team coach [Post Updated #17]

[Bewal Express]

Well that's why I'm saying PCB should come out on the record and state clearly what the terms of the contract were, and which terms Kirsten supposedly breached. Did it stipulate Kirsten needed to spend X amount of time in Pakistan ?

If facts prove me wrong then fine, but I'm guessing PCB won't do that because there were no violations to begin with, and an unprofessional boards wants to save face with the public hence why they're leaking to journalists.

You and I have been here for years and we both know that these idiots are useless. I have always believed that We should never have appoint a Foreign coach because they are expensive and add little. But once he was appointed give him the tools to succeed and stick to the contract.

This is it, in a nutshell.

A foreign coach makes little sense when so many of the players have such poor command of English.
A similar (but reverse situation) occurred when a few foreign coaches came to the Premier League with poor command of English — it occasionally worked for a bit, but when the going got tough, it was dire. The foreign coaches in the PL now can speak and communicate with the players.

However, once you had appointed the person, agreed the terms of engagement etc then you have to give the person a decent period of time, stick to the contract etc.

Otherwise, you appear dishonest, deceitful and untrustworthy— all of which may well be true.

And that's that. Kirsten had thrown in his hat. How much longer before Gillespie does the same ?

45 days it is. Awful all around

I think PCB must be appreciated that they managed to fool JG for another 45 days.

Yes communication becomes a huge issue.

Also lifestyle in Pakistan is not compatible for someone from SENA so they wouldn't spent enough time in the country to really get a feel for what needs to be done. Perhaps in another 10-20 years, lets see how the society develops.

any evidence to the contrary with PCB?
