Although he has been a board director, he has not been involved in national team management for a long time. Ahmed Sajjadul Alam Bobby became the manager of this Zimbabwe tour in 2013.
This time again, the cricket-minded man is the tour companion of the national team in Zimbabwe. However, this time not as a manager, Bobby has gone to Zimbabwe as a team leader.
Earlier, Tigers' new Sri Lankan spin coach Rangana Herath joined Team Bangladesh at Doha International Airport in Qatar.
Meanwhile, the national team has reached Harare, the capital of Zimbabwe, via Johannesburg, the capital of South Africa. New Proteas batting coach Ashwell Prince has joined the team there.
Ahmed Sajjadul Alam Bobby had tea at the team hotel with the two new coaches and the entire coaching staff this afternoon (8 pm in Bangladesh).
"The first practice session is tomorrow, Thursday morning," Bobby told Jago News on his mobile phone at 9:25 pm in Bangladesh. Before that, I talked to the coaches. There was an exchange of ideas. Their strategy and goal plan were also known.
Bobby posted a picture on his Facebook page after a meeting with Head Coach Russell Domingo, new batting coach Ashwell Prince, pace bowling coach Otis Gibson, spin coach Rangana Herath, and fielding coach Ryan Cook, physio Nick Lee.
Speaking to Jago News, Bobby further said that all the cricketers, coaching-supporting staff, and officials of their team were tested at the airport yesterday and all the reports came back negative.
