Pakistan cricket is going through the biggest change in the memory. From the captain, coaching staff, and selectors to the president of the cricket board, there has been a change. The post of Pakistan head coach is currently vacant. 

Members of Pakistan's World Cup coaching staff, Grant Bradburn, Andrew Puttick, and Mickey Arthur have all joined the new address. Meanwhile, Mohammad Hafeez was sent to tour Australia and New Zealand as team director and head coach. A few days ago, Hafeez was also bid farewell by PCB. As a result, the governing body of Pakistan cricket is currently looking for a new head coach for the national team.

PCB wants to appoint a head coach before the New Zealand series at home in April. However, this time, PCB wants to appoint a new head coach on a full-time basis and not on a part-time basis. According to the report of the popular cricket website ESPNcricinfo, former all-rounders Shane Watson and Darren Sammy are on the PCB's list of favorites as the head coach.

Watson is currently in Pakistan to coach PSL team Quetta Gladiators. Watson is believed to have brought good fortune to the franchise. Quetta is going to qualify for the PSL playoffs for the first time in the last five years.

Apart from Watson, PCB is eyeing Darren Sammy. According to ESPNcricinfo, Watson has been offered the head coach position. But it is still not sure if he will accept it. Even so, Watson has a busy schedule. Shane Watson lives in Sydney with a young family. He is also the coach of the Major Cricket League team San Francisco Unicorns. Watson also has a contract with Star Sports to provide commentary on ICC events and IPL. Watson spent two years as Ricky Ponting's assistant coach at IPL team Delhi Capitals.

PCB has been impressed with Watson's performance in Quetta. However, the agreement between the two sides depends on how much time Watson has to spend in Pakistan as the head coach. The last time Mickey Arthur was in charge he was given some time concession by the PCB. As a result, Arthur has served as the director of cricket in Pakistan as well as the coach of Derbyshire in county cricket. Grant Bradburn was then hired as the full-time head coach.

Darren Sammy, the captain who won the West Indies two T20 World Cup titles, is in the race to become the head coach of Pakistan. In Sammy's favor here is his long association with Pakistan cricket. Sammy is very popular in Pakistan since he was the captain of PSL team Peshawar Zalmi. Sammy decided to go to Pakistan, especially for the 2017 PSL final, where the rest of his team followed suit. But the foreign cricketers of Quetta Gladiators decided not to go to Pakistan. Sammy is currently working as the head coach of Peshawar Zalmi. His team has already qualified for the playoffs. In addition, Sammy is the head coach of the West Indies national team in the limited-over format ODI and T20.

Pakistan is scheduled to play a five-match Twenty20 series at home against New Zealand in April. After the Afghanistan and England series, Pakistan will play in the West Indies and the United States of America in the T20 World Cup in June.
