Mike Hesson says he is open to taking charge as Pakistan’s permanent Test head coach, following an interim role that gave him control for the Edgbaston Test. ESPN Cricinfo reports he could be appointed across formats if the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) decides to extend his responsibilities beyond Tests.
Both outlets frame the development around Hesson’s position after receiving interim control for the Edgbaston match. The India Today report adds that Hesson leaves the decision and follow-up to the PCB, indicating he is ready to continue if approached formally. ESPN Cricinfo similarly presents the prospect as a possibility rather than a confirmed appointment.
In terms of differences, the sources emphasize the same core point—Hesson’s openness to a permanent role—but vary slightly in scope and emphasis. ESPN Cricinfo highlights the potential for a wider appointment across formats, while India Today focuses more directly on his readiness for the permanent Test role and his message to the PCB.
