New BCB Prez Faruque Ahmed Questions Coach Hathurusinghe’s Role, Eyes Total Overhaul Of Setup
Bangladesh Cricket Board: Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) newly elected president, Faruque Ahmed has made his stance clear: Chandika Hathurusinghe’s time as head coach may be nearing its end. Faruque, who had already expressed concerns about Hathurusinghe’s return even before assuming office, reiterated his belief that Bangladesh needs a change in leadership ahead of crucial upcoming tournaments.
"I am yet to find out about Chandika Hathurusinghe's contract," Faruque told reporters at Sher-E-Bangla stadium. "I have to see some stuff officially, but I have not moved from my previous stance. I need to speak to my colleagues in the next two or three days and see if we can find someone better than him. We need to prepare a shortlist and see who is willing to join us."
Hathurusinghe’s current contract runs until February 2025, aligning with the conclusion of the Champions Trophy. Despite being brought back for a second stint in 2023, his tenure has been marred by internal unrest within the team.
