The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has suspended men's team head coach Chandika Hathurusingha due to inappropriate conduct by him during last year's ODI World Cup in India.

Veteran Bangladesh cricket team fast bowler Taskin Ahmed missed the T20 World Cup 2024 match against India due to 'oversleeping', a report claimed.

Chandika Hathurusingha said that the country does not have a proper T20 tournament and launched a fiery rant on Bangladesh Premier League (BPL).

The second Test begins in Dhaka on Wednesday, with Bangladesh looking to win their maiden Test series against the visitors.

Following Sri Lanka's disappointing World Cup 2019, where they finished in sixth place, Chandika Hathurusingha and his assistants were shown the door.

Bangladesh coach Chandika Hathurusingha wants his players to treat the Champions Trophy semi-final against India as a big opportunity.
