Following a consecutive Test series defeat against England, including a 194-run loss at Lord's and an innings defeat, Pakistan cricket authorities have taken sweeping disciplinary and structural action. The Pakistan team management sacked head coach Sarfaraz Ahmed and sent seven squad members back home.
To fill the vacancies and restructure the team, white-ball coach Mike Hesson has stepped in to take over the Test side. Additionally, the team management has injected fresh talent into the touring party by adding five uncapped players alongside Saim Ayub and Abdullah Fazal for the remainder of the England series.
