Gladiators' owner, Nadeem Omar, team director Moin Khan, and the rest of the management had decided to appoint Watson as the coach.
Watson had been familiar with the PSL as he had been a part of Islamabad United and the Gladiators as well.
Expressing his thoughts, Omar said, “Shane Watson had played an important role in the Gladiators’ victories in the past.”
