Following a disappointing Test series in England where Pakistan lost all three matches, PCB chairman Mohsin Naqvi is preparing for significant changes within the cricket setup. Reports suggest that the national selection committee's structure is under review, with Aaqib Javed potentially losing his role as senior selector. The fallout from the tour has already resulted in the dismissal of two coaches, and there may be further changes impacting the women's team's coaching staff. Mohsin Naqvi plans to meet with aides and board members to finalize decisions about the future direction of the teams and coaching personnel. Mike Hesson, currently the white-ball coach, has expressed interest in a broader role with the men's team, pending assurances regarding decision-making autonomy.
