As the preparations for the upcoming PSL season have picked up, the Rawalpindiz have announced Adam Voges as their head coach.
The former Australian Test batter has been quite successful in his coaching stints in franchise leagues such as the Big Bash League and the Major League Cricket.
Adam Voges joins Rawalpindiz as head coach ahead of PSL 2027
Led by Mohammad Rizwan, the Rawalpindiz had the legendary Inzamam-ul-Haq as President and Mentor last season, in what was their maiden stint in the PSL.
The franchise announced Adam Voges as the head coach after they finished in last place on the PSL 2026 Points Table, with just a solitary victory after 10 matches.
"One of the most successful coaches in modern domestic cricket, Voges will set how The Pindiz play and lead the squad built to play that way," the Rawalpindiz announced via a press release.
Retired from international sport in early 2017, the 47-year-old got into coaching to become Perth Scorchers' head coach in 2018. Under him, they won three of their six BBL silverwares, i.e. BBL|11, BBL|12 and BBL|15.
The thinking coach also helped Western Australia break a 23-year-old title drought in the Sheild Sheild, leading them to three successive titles from 2021–22 to 2023–24. Under Voges, WA also won five trophies in seven Marsh Cup seasons.
Rawalpindiz, other PSL Franchises have until November 23 to finalise retentions
Earlier in October, the PCB announced the roadmap for the next PSL 2027.
According to the Pakistan board, each franchise can retain up to seven players from its previous squad.
Additionally, teams can also pick a directly signed player, provided they have not featured in the last two seasons.
Last year, Daryl Mitchell, Sam Billings and Mohammad Amir were the only graces for the Rawalpindiz. However, the likes of Mohammad Rizwan, Naseem Shah, Razaullah and Rishad Hossain were a few other prolific names in their squad.
The deadline for all franchises to announce retained and directly signed players is November 23.
