The Bangladesh cricket team is without a main coach since April
after Stuart Law took retirement from his post citing personal reasons for his
exit.
Stuart Law who coached the
Bangladeshi cricket team for seven months is now working at Australia's Centre of Excellence.
Due to the absence of main
coach, assistant coach, Shane Jurgensen, is playing the role of a main coach
for short term basis.
However, it is not
possible for the BCB to continue playing cricket without a main coach. That is
why, they are looking for a coach to fill up the vacant post.
The BCB has been getting
more and more appointment letters but it seems that they have not found the
right person for the job. One of the persons who have applied for the post is Mick
Newell, Nottinghamshire director of cricket.
The 47-year-old Newell has
publicly expressed his interest in becoming the new
head coach of Bangladesh. He played 102 first-class matches and scored 4636
at an average of 30.50 with a career best of 203 not out.
Richard Pybus had the
highest possibility to be the head coach of Bangladesh, but because of dissimilarities regarding the
financial issues between the former Pakistan coach and the Bangladesh Cricket Board he was not
selected for the post.
Newell does not have any experience to coach at
the international level. So, it will be very difficult for him to be named the
coach of Bangladesh cricket team as he was not an international
player. He has so far coached England Lions.
