– Shortcomings against Bangladesh –
Pakistan red-ball captain Shan Masood was facing immense pressure following the national team's failure against Bangladesh at the Pindi Cricket Stadium in Rawalpindi.
Sources privy to the development said on Saturday that it was decided to hold the top-level meeting and workshop in a bid to put Pakistan cricket back on track.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) had named the meeting and workshop as the "connection camp," which is expected to be held on September 22 (Sunday).
According to the sources, Pakistan white-ball coach Gary Kirsten and red-ball coach Jason Gillespie will also hold meetings with each other to discuss the matters in line with the change of the Pakistan captains.
It is expected that the new white captain will be appointed for the forthcoming series against Australia. Meanwhile, the captaincy of Shan Masood came under scrutiny.
Kirsten had made his way back home after presenting his report over Pakistan's T20 World Cup debacle. Gillespie, on the other hand, had also returned to Australia after shortcomings against Bangladesh in the Test series.
