Lahore Qalandars' head coach unavailable for PSL 10
Gough's contract with franchise began last year for the GT20 League and he was set to join team for PSL 10
Darren Gough will not be available to serve as the head coach of Lahore Qalandars for the upcoming HBL Pakistan Super League (PSL) season 10 due to personal commitments.
The former head coach brought immense experience, leadership, and passion to the Qalandars' setup. His contract with the franchise began last year for the Global T20 League and he was set to join the team for this PSL season.
However, due to unavoidable commitments, he will be unable to take on the role this year.
While his time with the squad was brief, his contributions were deeply valued by the franchise.
"We are disappointed that Darren won’t be able to join us this season, as we were looking forward to working with him,” said Sameen Rana, COO Lahore Qalandars.
"However, we fully understand and respect his commitments. He remains a valued part of the Qalandars family, and we sincerely wish him the very best.”
Gough expressed his disappointment as well, saying: "Its a sad news for myself and the Qalandars that I will not be able to make it to the PSL this year due to personal commitments that were unavoidable. However, my best wishes with the team, as once a Qalandar always a Qalandar.
"My time working with the team and Sameen has been wonderful and the players we managed to get at the draft were exactly what we needed. Hopefully, that will translate as a huge success. I will see you guys in the future, hopefully next year!"
Lahore Qalandars will soon announce the new head coach for PSL 10 as preparations for the season continue.
