Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) appointed Dav Whatmore as its national team coach on 4 March 2012. Whatmore would remain on the position for next two years.
Englishman Julian Fountain was slated as the fielding coach of the team. Asia Cup tournament, to be held in the later part of March 2012, would be the first assignment of both the new coaches.
Whatmore, played seven tests for Australia, has an impressive record as a coach of different teams. While he led Sri Lanka to world cup victory in 1996, he also led Bangladeshi team to their first test match and subsequent series win in 2005.
Prior to Whatmore, three foreigners including Englishmen Richard Pybus and Bob Woolmer and Australian Geoff Lawson have been assigned with the task to coach Pakistani team in the past.
