Akram Khan said to a website, “We want to the best for our country. We are seeking bowling coach as well as batting coach. Especially, our target is a batting coach. We have not yet selected the coach. If we do not get any foreign coach, we shall fulfill the vacant post by a local coach.”
Khan said, “We shall try our level best to find out a coach before the home series against India. We have discussed with six or seven coaches.”
Khaled Mahmud Sujan said, “Our committee’s target is to find out a good coach as early as possible. But we have not yet taken part in any meeting.
We shall discuss soon and make a list. Then the coach, whose profile will be best, will be appointed the coach of Bangladesh National Cricket team.”
