Gary Kirsten, who takes over as the head coach of the Pakistan men's team ahead of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024, is determined to give the team the best chance of winning an ICC Trophy during his tenure.
The former South Africa opener and World Cup-winning coach with the Indian team has been appointed for a two-year period, during which he will oversee the team in three major ICC tournaments — two T20 World Cups (2024, 2026) and the ICC Champions Trophy in 2025.
"If you can win one of those three ICC Events, that will be an amazing achievement on its own, whether it’s the upcoming event or it’s two years from now," Kirsten said on the PCB Podcast.
"My job is to make sure that the team operates at its best, it’s as simple as that.
And if the team is operating at its best, we will always have a good chance of winning a trophy."
