Former South Africa international Gary Kirsten has resigned as the head coach of Pakistan's ODI and T20I sides just six months into his two-year contract, according to multiple media outlets.

India were bowled out for 119, their lowest ever score against Pakistan in a T20 game but won by six wickets after their rivals fell just short.

"It's going to be a great occasion," said Pakistan head coach Gary Kirsten.

Gary Kirsten, the head coach of the Indian team that won the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup in 2011, will assume the role of white-ball head coach of Pakistan heading into the upcoming T20 World Cup, the PCB announced in their press conference on Sunday.

Pakistan have appointed former South Africa batsman Gary Kirsten as head coach of their men's white-ball teams, while the test side will be under the guidance of former Australian fast bowler Jason Gillespie, the country's cricket board said on Sunday.

All eyes were on the Pan Pacific Sonargaon hotel in the capital, where former South African cricketer Gary Kirsten -- who arrived in Dhaka on Sunday night -- was to sit with Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) officials along with senior members of the national team yesterday.

The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) said on Monday night that former South African opener and India's 2011 World Cup-winning coach Gary Kirsten's appointment as a consultant is in the final stages.
