Tigers without head coach for Zimbabwe, Sri Lanka tri-series

Bangladesh will be without a head coach for the upcoming ODI tri-series against Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe, as well as the Test and T20 series against Sri Lanka. BCB president Nazmul Hassan said Richard Halsall, the assistant coach, will be in charge of coaching the side while manager Khaled Mahmud, Shakib Al Hasan and Mashrafe Mortaza will share responsibilities in the absence of a permanent head coach, reports ESPNCricinfo.
Hassan said the BCB is still looking for a permanent coach, after the position became vacant in November when Chandika Hathurusingha resigned.
The BCB has spoken to Andy Flower, Justin Langer, Tom Moody, Mahela Jayawardene and Kumar Sangakkara as possible candidates for Hathurusingha's replacement. All five declined. The BCB then interviewed Richard Pybus and Phil Simmons, who was named as Afghanistan's coach on December 31.
