PCB will soon announce a replacement for Morkel. The next assignment will be the three-match test series against Australia starting from December 14, 2023 to January 7, 2024.
The resignation has followed a dismal performance by the national team in the ongoing World Cup in India. Pakistan lost five out of a total of nine matches, failing to make it to the semi-finals. The bowling attack, missing spearhead Naseem Shah, has come under fire for its poor performance.
