Grant Bradburn has been appointed as the head coach of the Pakistan national men’s side following a robust recruitment process. He will lead the team’s coaching panel for the next two years.
Bradburn served as the head coach of the side during the recently concluded home series against New Zealand on consultancy basis.
The Babar Azam-led side defeated the tourists 4-1 in the five-match One-Day International series that took them to the top of the ICC Rankings in the format. The five-match T20 International series was shared 2-2.
"It is a great honour for me to work with the highly talented and skilful side like Pakistan as a head coach," said Bradburn.
"The New Zealand series has been valuable to get game time and create clarity of roles, culture and brand to win."
Bradburn had previously been Pakistan's fielding coach, and was Scotland's head coach between 2014-2018.
Pakistan are scheduled to feature in a three-match ODI series against Afghanistan before the 50-over ACC Asia Cup and the national side will use these opportunities to test their potential, experiment with the bench strength and fine-tune the side ahead of the global event.
