Former Australian pacer Jason Gillespie slammed the Pakistan Cricket Board after he stepped down from the national team's head coach position. Gillespie stated that he was completely and utterly blindsided by the cricket board in Pakistan.

Jason Gillespie, whose contract was set to expire in 2026 resigned last week. Following the resignation, he expressed his frustration by saying that there was lack of communication which made him feel that the board no longer needed him in the role.
