Bangladesh Head Coach Hathurusingha Keen on Completing Contract

Hathurusingha Vows to Stay Until Champions Trophy

Coach Expresses Mixed Feelings After Series Loss

Bangladesh head coach Chandika Hathurusingha remains committed to completing his contract with the men's team, despite a disappointing series loss in Pakistan.

Appointed in early 2023 on a two-year contract, Hathurusingha's second stint with the team has not been without its challenges.

After a 3-0 defeat in the Test series, Hathurusingha expressed mixed feelings while addressing the media in Rawalpindi on Monday.

Hathurusingha's Statement:

• Keen to remain Bangladesh head coach for the entirety of his contract, which expires after the 2025 Champions Trophy.
• Disappointed with the team's performance in the Test series against Pakistan.
• Vows to work hard and improve the team's performance in the upcoming white-ball series.

Despite the setback, Hathurusingha remains optimistic:

Reasons for Optimism:

• Bangladesh's recent ODI series victory over India.
• The team's overall improvement in white-ball cricket.
• Hathurusingha's belief that the team can bounce back from the Test series loss.

Hathurusingha's commitment to Bangladesh cricket is a testament to his passion for the game and his belief in the team's potential.

The upcoming white-ball series against Pakistan will provide a crucial test for Bangladesh and Hathurusingha, giving them an opportunity to prove their resilience and determination.
