Pakistan's tour of Australia is scheduled for November. But, before that, a big question has gripped Pakistan cricket. The question is whether the Pakistani team will play without a coach on the Australia tour. This is because there is news that Pakistan's white ball coach Gary Kirsten may resign and there is suspense over his going to Australia with the team. Now even though this news has not been confirmed by PCB yet. But, according to media reports, there are full indications of this happening.

Pakistan's tour of Australia will start on November 4 and end on November 18. A series of 3 ODIs and 3 T20 matches will be played on this tour. This tour of Pakistan will be the first assignment of its new white ball captain Mohammad Rizwan. But, will the new captain have to deal with this assignment without a coach?

What happened to Gary Kirsten, who became the coach of Pakistan's white ball team in May this year, in just 6 months that it led to his resignation? In its report, Cricbuzz has said that the reason behind Kirsten's decision was differences of opinion. According to Cricbuzz, Kirsten had differences with the players. He wanted to make David Reid the high-performance coach, which he did not get the support of the board. On the contrary, PCB suggested the names of some other options which Kirsten did not accept.

Will Kirsten not go on the Australia-Zimbabwe tour?

Amidst the news of Gary Kirsten resigning from the post of whiteball coach, it is also being said that he will not be a part of the Pakistani team on the tour of Australia and Zimbabwe. Pakistan's team for both tours was announced on Sunday. But, after the announcement of the team, the question before the Pakistan Cricket Board is who will be the coach on both tours?

Who will become the next white ball coach?

It is important for Pakistan to find a new coach because there are not many days left for the Champions Trophy. If Gary Kirsten leaves, as is reported, then they will have to complete the search for a new whiteball coach soon. One choice before PCB regarding the new whiteball coach is to give this responsibility to Jason Gillespie. Gillespie is currently the red ball coach of Pakistan. Another option before PCB is Aaqib Javed, who is currently in the role of national selector. Aaqib's role as a selector is being appreciated in the Test series win against England.
