Chandika Hathurusingha

Hathurusingha happy to continue as Tigers coach

The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has been in a limbo ever since the fall of the Awami League government with many board directors including president Nazmul Hassan Papon going into hiding.

Hathurusingha’s ‘different style’ a problem for Tigers?

“I agree that his [Hathurusingha] man management style and communication is totally different. His biggest problem is his difficulty in adjusting to our country’s culture,” the BCB president said on Hathurusingha, whose contract will run till the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy.

Hathurusingha's arrival delayed due to visa issues

Bangladesh head coach Chandika Hathurusingha’s arrival to the country has been delayed due to visa issues, a Bangladesh Cricket Board official said on Monday.

When will Hathurusingha take responsibility?

Now, will the BCB finally demand accountability from Hathurusingha or will they maintain the status quo as raising questions will bring them directly into the firing line?

BCB clueless about Tigers’ insipid show against Afghans

When asked about the team’s approach in the Afghanistan game, Papon had no answers, saying, “What can I say about that?”

Tigers train in Kingstown ahead of Nepal clash

Bangladesh players trained at the Arnos Vale Stadium in Kingstown today ahead of their final Group D fixture against Nepal at the same venue on Monday. A win against Nepal will seal qualification to the Super 8s for the Tigers alongside group-leaders South Africa. 

Difficult batting wicket gives Bangladesh confidence of fighting equally

For Bangladesh head coach Chandika Hathurusingha, the lack of runs at the venue meant that both Bangladesh and South Africa have equal chances, going into the game on Monday.

Will Hathurusingha continue receiving free pass?

More than a year into his contract, Hathurusingha got to see both sides of the coin. In 2023, Bangladesh whitewashed defending champions England, and Afghanistan won a series against Ireland at home and claimed their maiden T20I win over New Zealand in the BlackCaps’ backyard. But less than a year since enjoying their best ever run in the shortest format, the Tigers spiralled down to their lowest point, displaying a severe lack of continuity.

Chandika says batting order will be shuffled

“In T20 Cricket, yes, batting order will be changing. That's just normal cricket," said the Bangladesh head coach.
