Pakistan cricket team’s coaching setup has witnessed a major change as fielding coach Shane McDermott has resigned from his role.

According to media reports, McDermott’s decision to leave the position is believed to be linked to family commitments. However, no official statement has been issued by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) regarding the reasons behind his resignation.

Shane McDermott joined Pakistan’s coaching staff last year and was appointed on the recommendation of white-ball head coach Mike Hesson.

Sources said that details regarding his departure have not yet been officially confirmed, while an announcement from the relevant authorities is still awaited.

During his time with the national team, McDermott played an important role in improving Pakistan’s fielding standards. His work was appreciated by players and cricket experts, with noticeable improvements seen in the team’s catching, fitness drills, and overall fielding approach.

His contribution was considered a key factor behind the improvement in Pakistan’s fielding performances during his tenure.

Following McDermott’s resignation, the Pakistan cricket team will now need to appoint a new fielding coach ahead of a busy international schedule.

The Pakistan Cricket Board is expected to review its coaching structure as preparations continue for upcoming international assignments.
