Lahore, Pakistan: Pakistan's white-ball head coach Gary Kirsten resigned on Monday after just six months in the job and a week before a tour of Australia begins.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) said the former South Africa Test player would be replaced by Test coach Jason Gillespie for the tour, in a statement offering no reason for Kirsten's departure.
Media reports said both coaches had been unhappy after a recent PCB decision to shut them out of the squad selection process.
Kirsten has made no public statement about his resignation.
In the past two years, Pakistan cricket has cycled through several coaches, three board heads, four captains and numerous formats of its domestic competition.
