The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has officially announced the appointment of Mike Hesson as the white-ball head coach of the Pakistan men’s cricket team.
Hesson will take over the role, from May 26, 2025, following a thorough evaluation of numerous applications for the position, which became vacant after the Pakistan men’s team tour to New Zealand in April.

He is also the current head coach of Islamabad United, the defending champions of the HBL Pakistan Super League.
PCB Chairman Mohsin Naqvi expressed his enthusiasm about Hesson’s appointment, stating, “I am pleased to announce the appointment of former New Zealand cricketer and renowned coach Mike Hesson as the white-ball head coach of the Pakistan men’s team. Mike brings with him a wealth of international experience and a proven track record of developing competitive sides. We look forward to his expertise and leadership in shaping the future of Pakistan’s white-ball cricket. Welcome to the team, Mike!”
