PCB seeks Shaun Tait and Martin Guptill for coaching roles
Summary

The Pakistan Cricket Board plans to approach former pacer Shaun Tait and New Zealand’s Martin Guptill for key coaching positions following a disappointing tour in England. This move comes after the PCB's restructuring that saw changes in both squad and support staff, including the resignation of Ashley Noffke as bowling coach. Tait, who previously served with Pakistan, had left his role with Bangladesh earlier this year. Guptill is being considered for the fielding coach position, marking a potential first foray into coaching. The PCB's leadership, led by Mohsin Naqvi, aims to strengthen the coaching group amidst ongoing scrutiny over the treatment of local versus foreign coaches in Pakistan cricket.
