Chandika Hathurusingha has been appointed Bangladesh National Team Head Coach. This will be the former Sri Lanka batsman’s second spell with the Bangladesh team which he had previously coached from 2014 to 2017. The 54-year old Hathurusingha has reached a two-year term with the BCB which starts from February 2023.

Hathurusingha in the media note said he was excited at the prospect of returning to Bangladesh cricket: “It’s an honour to have been given this opportunity to coach the Bangladesh national team once again.

“I really loved the warmth of the people and the culture of Bangladesh whenever I have been there. I’m looking forward to working with the players once again and enjoy their successes.”
