South African coach Gary Kirsten has left his mark on the cricketing world, guiding teams like India and South Africa to success. Now, he’s set to take on a new challenge as Pakistan’s white-ball coach. But what does this mean for his ongoing IPL contract with the Gujarat Titans?

Navigating Between Two Worlds: Coaching in India and Pakistan

With Kirsten now part of Pakistan’s coaching setup, the question arises: can he balance coaching roles in both India and Pakistan simultaneously? Given the delicate relations between the two countries, it’s a tough ask. Plus, with the IPL often coinciding with Pakistan’s bilateral series, Kirsten may have to choose between the two roles.

The Lure of Lucrative Offers and Job Security Concerns

While the BCCI tends to offer more lucrative deals to coaches, job security is a factor, especially considering the treatment foreign coaches have received in Pakistan in recent years. With Kirsten’s decision to join Pakistan’s coaching staff, the IPL may lose one of its seasoned coaches.

The Uncertain Future of Kirsten’s IPL Association

 

Although there’s been no official announcement, Kirsten’s move to Pakistan suggests that his association with the IPL, particularly with the Gujarat Titans, may come to an end. As Kirsten settles into his new role, the Titans may need to start their search for a new batting coach.
