Pakistan’s Cricket Board (PCB) has firmly denied the allegations on the unpaid fees of former Test head coach Jason Gillespie, calling them completely false and misleading. The PCB fought back against Jason Gillespie, accusing the former Australian cricketer of twisting the facts against his unpaid membership charges.
The board stated that Gillespie had resigned from his role without prior notice, and because of his sudden exit, they had to surprise the board of directors with Aaqib for a tour of South Africa. The former Australian cricketer should have paid PCB four months’ salary because he resigned himself.

Under the terms of the contract, Gillespie was to give appropriate notice if he wanted to resign as head coach of Pakistan’s test team.
The former Australian quit his job without prior notice, and by doing so he violated a clause that he intended to pay the PCB four months’ salary. In contrast, Gillespie recently expressed disappointment about the issue and hopes it will be sorted out soon.
Jason Gillespie is owing a 4-month salary for PCB!!
A PCB spokesman cited Cricket Pakistan’s “contracts say that if PCB terminates Jason Gillespie’s services, it would be liable to pay four months’ salary.
The spokesman said, “He is a person who owes a PCB salary because Gillespie himself has withdrawn from the role. Therefore, his claim of unpaid membership fees is incorrect.”
