Pakistan fielding coach Shane McDermott has resigned ahead of their upcoming tour to the West Indies and England after a year-long stint.
A reliable source close to the Pakistan Cricket Board said McDermott will not travel with the team on those aforementioned tours.
The PCB is keen to appoint Mansoor Amjad, who has worked with Shaheens and Under-19 teams, as the Australian's replacement.
"Mansoor Amjad who has been the fielding coach with the Pakistan Shaheens and under-19 is likely to replace McDermott," the source said.
Pakistan will leave on Monday for the two-Test tour to the Caribbean, and subsequently will travel to England for three Tests.
The PCB has not specified any reason for McDermott's resignation, and it has added another instance to a foreign coach leaving his assignment in Pakistan cricket in unexplained circumstances.
Recent examples being the outgoing trainer/physio Cliffe Deacon, and the resignations of head coaches, Gary Kirsten and Jason Gillespie.

Linda Noskova placed fingers in both of her ears to drown out the noise from the Centre Court crowd.
She draped one of Wimbledon's strawberry-red towels over her head.
And eventually - after she had wasted five match points and a 5-2 lead and conceded the second set of a drama-filled final - she left the court completely for a bathroom break.
During Noskova's brief time off the court, two shiny objects caught her attention: the Venus Rosewater Dish that is awarded to the women's champion and the smaller dish for the runner-up.
"I was like, I'm not going to take the small one. I'm taking the big one. I have been so close. This will probably be the heartbreak of my life,'" Noskova said. "'I'm going to leave my soul on court in the third set, whatever that be.'"
The 21-year-old Noskova did just as she promised herself, overcoming her second-set meltdown to beat Karolina Muchova 6-2, 5-7, 6-3 in an all-Czech final for her first Grand Slam trophy on Saturday.

Alexander Zverev has more than just defending champion Jannik Sinner to deal with on Sunday in the Wimbledon final.
The 29-year-old German also has Type 1 diabetes, which requires him to monitor his glucose levels and, if needed, inject insulin during matches.
Zverev, who won the French Open and is seeking back-to-back Grand Slam titles, uses an insulin pen when needed to jab the top of his thigh during changeovers on court.
Here's some more information about Zverev and the disease.
Zverev was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes as a boy
=================================
Zverev disclosed in 2022 that he has Type 1 diabetes, having been diagnosed at age 4, according to his diabetes foundation. He had previously kept it quiet. If he needed an insulin jab during a match, he'd do it privately during bathroom breaks.
The announcement coincided with him launching his foundation, to help children in particular.
"If we as a foundation, and me just as a tennis player and somebody who has dia

Petrol blended with 20 per cent ethanol (E20) can reduce fuel economy by 3-5 per cent in some vehicles, the Oil Ministry said on Friday, but argued the impact is outweighed by benefits, including a higher octane rating, superior anti-knock characteristics, faster combustion, better pickup, smoother acceleration, cleaner engine operation, and lower lifecycle carbon emissions.
In a detailed question-and-answer document issued to counter criticism of the Ethanol Blended Petrol Programme, the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas said E20 was a "cleaner, higher-quality and more efficient fuel" than E10 or pure petrol and had been rolled out only after years of scientific testing, consultations with automobile manufacturers and the expansion of domestic ethanol production.
The ministry rejected concerns that the programme had been implemented too quickly, saying India's ethanol blending initiative dates back to pilot projects launched in 2001, with 5 per cent blending introduced in parts 

While ethanol production capacity has rapidly expanded to around 19-19.9 billion litres per year, demand for E20 blended fuel is estimated at only about 11 billion litres in the current ethanol year that began last November

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) on Sunday said it had successfully carried out three major tests of the Gaganyaan crew module systems.
The first test pertained to ensuring an upright position for the crew module after splashdown in the sea, considered one of the most important crew safety requirements.
To do this, a stored cold-gas-based uprighting system was developed and tested.
"A system-level qualification test setup consisting of all the elements of CMUS (crew module uprighting system) was realised and successfully conducted inflation tests for the primary inflation module wherein stored gas in the high-pressure gas bottle was made to inflate the floatation by operating the control valves," the ISRO said.
The second test involved examining the separation of the umbilical mechanism that serves as a link between the crew module, where astronauts live, and the service module, which provides power and propulsion.
The mechanism consists of two parts, each located at

"I will commit suicide," then prime minister Manmohan Singh had told Chief Election Commissioner SY Quraishi in 2012 after the poll watchdog chief conveyed his anguish over "loose talk" by ministers on the Election Commission functioning.
Singh had also told Quraishi that the Election Commission is not just India's pride; it is the soul of the country's democracy and "if we lose that, we lose everything".
The conversation is recalled in Quraishi's forthcoming book "India and I: A Hundred Memories, Not a Memoir'.
In his book, Quraishi hails Singh as a leader for whom constitutional propriety was not a talking point but a lived conviction.
The former CEC recalls that during an election, in January 2012, in Uttar Pradesh, Salman Khurshid, then Law Minister, promised at a rally that if his party came to power, it would raise the quota for Muslims in jobs from 4.5 per cent to 9 per cent.
"The BJP promptly complained of a Model Code violation, which stipulated that no new scheme could b
