Following allegations of favouritism and willfulness from some senior players, Manjurul Islam Monju, who already lost his place as the team manager, is set to be removed from the chief selector’s post of the national women’s cricket team.
According to close sources within the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB), the former national cricketer will no longer hold any position in the women’s team.
Chairman of the BCB women’s wing, Shafiul Alam Chowdhury Nadel, told The Daily Star yesterday that they intend to operate “as a team, with freedom” as the BCB is eager to move away from the one-member selection panel with two new faces in the selection committee.
Moreover, it was learned that the board is planning to appoint a foreign bowling coach in time while former Sri Lanka skipper Hashan Tillakaratne continues as the head coach of the national team.
