Former New Zealand batsman Craig McMillan, who had been appointed as Bangladesh batting consultant for the Tour of Sri Lanka, would not able to undertake the role due to a loss in the family, informed Bangladesh Cricket Broad through a press release on Saturday.
‘Craig has communicated to us that his father has passed away recently and therefore it would not be possible for him to take up the batting consultant’s position of the National Team for the upcoming tour at this moment of grief. We fully understand his situation. Our sympathies are with Craig and his family during this difficult time,’ BCB chief executive officer Nizam Uddin Chowdhury was quoted as saying in the press release.
McMillan was appointed as the batting consultant of the Tigers for their forthcoming three-Test tour of Sri Lanka.
McMillan replaced South African Neil McKenzie, who confirmed last month that he had resigned from his role as batting consultant for the Bangladesh national team. -new age
