Tensions reportedly escalated when Kirsten threatened to not accompany the team to Australia unless his requests were met. Despite his stance, the PCB remained firm, reinforcing their existing conditions. Kirsten also expressed his reluctance to stay in Pakistan under the terms of the PCB agreement. Sources indicate that Kirsten’s insistence on having a say in the team structure and central contract categories, along with his push for preferred international support staff, added to the discord.

Kirsten’s absence during and after the Champions Cup further fueled the rift, with the coach citing demands related to mental performance coach David Reid’s contract as a key concern. With no resolution in sight, the PCB urged Kirsten to decide his future, ultimately leading to his resignation.
