‘Are you returning to Hathurusingha?’
National team cricketers have been so curious since last year’s T20 World Cup. Sri Lankan coach Chandika Hathurusingha’s return to Bangladesh cricket was mixed with fear in the question of the cricketers. While being the coach of the Bangladesh national team, Hathurusingha was seen in the role of a strict headmaster.
That memory is still fresh in the minds of the players of Hathurusingha’s time, except for a few new cricketers. It begs the question whether bringing him back is good or bad. Earlier that day, a cricketer was jokingly saying, ‘I ran a little too much today when I heard that Hathu (Hathurusinghe) was coming. The fitness has to be improved.’
