KARACHI: Pakistan on Friday appointed Grant Bradburn as the head coach of their men’s team for their upcoming limited-overs series against New Zealand.
Bradburn, 56, played seven Tests and 11 one-day internationals for New Zealand before taking up coaching.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) added that Andrew Puttick of South Africa will join the staff as batting coach.
The head coach position fell vacant after Saqlain Mushtaq’s term ended in February. Abdul Rahman filled in for the three Twenty20s against Afghanistan last month.
The recruitment process for the team management beyond the New Zealand tour was ongoing, the PCB said in a statement.

Former Pakistan head coach Mickey Arthur will take up team director position after the New Zealand series, according to local media reports.
Pakistan will host New Zealand for five T20s starting April 14, followed by five one-day internationals.
