Former Australia pace bowler Jason Gillespie has been named as Pakistan men’s Test coach.
The ex-Yorkshire and Sussex head coach has signed a two-year deal and will be in charge for England's tour of Pakistan later this year.
Former South Africa player and coach Gary Kirsten will take charge of Pakistan's white-ball sides while ex-Pakistan all-rounder Azhar Mahmood has been named assistant across all formats.
Gillespie said: "Leading the Pakistan cricket team is a big achievement for any coach, given its rich legacy and passionate fan base.
"I love Test cricket and being able to focus on that is something I like very much. I also love the fact that there is so much talent in Pakistan.
"I understand there will be expectation and that comes with the role. All I can do is to take it in my stride and I would not have taken on the job if I did not think I could deal with it."
Kirsten, who coached India to World Cup glory in 2011, added: "It's a tremendous honour to be entrusted with the responsibility of coaching the Pakistan men's national team in white-ball cricket and to rejoin the international cricket arena after some time. I eagerly anticipate this opportunity and aim to contribute positively to the Pakistan men's national team in limited-overs cricket."
