According to the PCB, they appointed Younis last year in November on a two-year contract until the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022.

Moreover, PCB Chief Executive Wasim Khan expressed sadness to lose an expert of the stature and experience of Younis Khan.

Following a series of discussions, we both have reluctantly but mutually and amicably agreed to move in different directions.

He also thanked Younis Khan for his contributions during his short stint as the Pakistan men’s national cricket team’s batting coach.

Furthermore, he hoped Younis will remain available to assist the PCB by sharing his vast knowledge with the emerging cricketers.

Both PCB and Younis Khan have agreed to not to make any further comment on the reasons for the former captain’s departure.

Now, Pakistan men’s national cricket team will travel to the United Kingdom without a batting coach.

However, the PCB will make the decision to appoint Younis Khan’s replacement for the West Indies tour in due course.

Pakistan men’s national cricket team will tour the UK from June 25 to July 20 for three ODIs and three T20Is.

The West Indies tour will begin from July 21 and continue until August 24 where the visiting team will feature in five T20Is and two Tests.
