Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) today announced the coaching staff of the Men’s National team for the upcoming Bangladesh Test series. 

Former Sri Lanka fast bowler and fast bowling coach Chaminda Vaas has been appointed as the Fast Bowling Coach for the upcoming Sri Lanka Tour of Bangladesh.

Piyal Wijetunge who worked as the national team’s Spin Bowling Coach previously will take up the role once again during the Bangladesh series. Meantime, Manoj Abeywickrama will work with the national team as the Fielding and Support Coach.

Though these are temporary appointments, they will likely extend their contracts for Australia and Pakistan series which are scheduled to be played within the next 3 months.
