Pakistan cricket team interim head coach Aaqib Javed has completed his tenure and now wants to secure another high position in the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB).
As per details, PCB has officially launched its search for a new permanent head coach by advertising the position, while as per sources, Javed is now showing interest in the Director of the High-Performance Centre role instead.
Javed initially took over as the white-ball head coach in November after Gary Kirsten stepped down shortly before Pakistan toured Australia.
His responsibilities were expanded to include all formats the following month, following Jason Gillespie’s resignation due to differences with the board.
Although Javed’s interim term was set to conclude with the ICC Men’s Champions Trophy 2025, it was extended briefly to cover the white-ball series in New Zealand earlier this year.
That extension has now ended, with the PCB deciding not to renew his role further.
Despite stepping aside from the head coaching role, sources suggest Javed remains interested in continuing his involvement in Pakistan cricket by taking up the Director of the High-Performance Centre position.
The PCB has invited applications from Level III qualified coaches with a minimum of 10 years of experience coaching national or domestic cricket teams.
The board has also advertised vacancy for Director of the High-Performance Centre position, the position vacant after Nadeem Khan’s resignation.
