Yahoo Sports Kirsten resigns as Pakistan's white-ball coach
Gary Kirsten has resigned as Pakistan's limited-overs coach after six months in the role and Test coach Jason Gillespie will be in charge for the white-ball tour of Australia which starts next week.
The former South Africa batter, 56, was appointed on a two-year contract in April at the same time as Gillespie took over the Test side.
Kirsten is reported by ESPNCricinfo to have had a strained relationship with the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) over selection issues.
Gillespie said before last week's third Test between Pakistan and England that he no longer had a say on selection and described his own role as a "match day strategist".
The PCB reconstituted their selection committee after a heavy defeat to England in the first Test.
Kirsten has previously coached India - guiding them to a 50-over World Cup win in 2011 - and his native South Africa as well stints with various T20 franchises including in the Indian Premier League.
Pakistan face Australia in three one-day internationals - starting on 4 November in Melbourne - before three T20 internationals.
The PCB has put former Australia bowler Gillespie in charge for those white-ball matches following Pakistan's 2-1 Test series win against England.
