Former Pakistan Test cricket head coach Jason Gillespie has accused the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) of failing to pay him nine months’ worth of salary,关键字2 months after he stepped down from the role in December 2024.

Gillespie, a former Australian fast bowler, was appointed as the head coach of Pakistan’s Test side in April 2024. He resigned eight months later, reportedly due to disagreements with the PCB.

Speaking in a recent interview, he said he harbours no ill will towards Pakistan cricket but remains disappointed over the unpaid dues. “I’m still waiting to be paid for the work I did. It’s a bit disappointing, but I’m hopeful this will be resolved soon,” he said.

This isn’t the first time Gillespie has criticised the PCB. Earlier, he claimed his experience with the national team made him question his desire to return to full-time coaching.

“The way it ended was disappointing. It made me think twice about whether I want to coach full-time again,” he remarked in a previous interview. Previously, he also accused interim head coach Aaqib Javed of undermining his authority during his time with the team.

PCB responds to claims

The PCB has rejected Gillespie’s allegations of non-payment, stating that he resigned without serving the required notice period as per contract. “There is no truth to the claims of unpaid dues. Gillespie resigned without giving the mandatory four-month notice outlined in the agreement,” a PCB spokesperson said.

According to the board, any outstanding payments are contingent on Gillespie fulfilling his contractual obligations. “His agent has contacted the PCB, and we have informed them that pending dues will be cleared once Gillespie settles his side of the agreement,” the spokesperson added.
