PSL 10 new schedule announced following India-Pakistan ceasefire
Earlier today, the Pakistan Cricket Board announced the appointment of Mike Hesson as the white-ball head coach of the Pakistan men’s cricket team, effective from 26 May 2025.
Hesson comes in to fill the post after evaluation of numerous applications received against the vacancy, which fell vacant after the Pakistan men’s team tour to New Zealand in April.
Hesson had previously served as head coach of various international teams including New Zealand and Kenya. He is also currently serving as head coach of Islamabad United, who is the defending champions of HBL Pakistan Super League.
In a separate development, the Pakistan Cricket Board announced the resumption of the Pakistan Super League (PSL) Season 10 following the recent ceasefire between India and Pakistan.
PCB Chairman Mohsin Naqvi confirmed that the remaining matches of the tournament will commence on May 17, with the grand final scheduled for May 25.
