Pakistan offspinner Saeed Ajmal had backed homegrown coaches and last October told a local television sports channel that players' opinion should be sought before appointing coaches.
Ajmal had to apologize to Whatmore when he said in the same interview that the Australian "doesn't have the knowhow of our language."
The PCB also said in the advertisement that the coaches should have the "ability to effectively work with a wide range of individuals from varied backgrounds."
While Pakistan won the Asia Cup and a one-day series against South Africa, Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe during Whatmore's tenure, it could not win any of the five test series, losing two -- against Sri Lanka and South Africa.
It drew the test series against lowly ranked Zimbabwe as well as drawing both its series in the United Arab Emirates against South Africa and Sri Lanka.
Former Pakistan test opener Mohsin Khan was coach when Pakistan whitewashed the then No. 1 ranked England 3-0 in a test series in U.A.E. before Whatmore took over.
