Bangladesh's bowling coach Shane Jurgensen was made
acting coach on Wednesday for the home series against West Indies as
Richard Pybus has refused to return to resume his role with the national
team.
Bangladesh Cricket Board President Nazmul Hassan Papon told journalists that the decision was taken at Wednesday's meeting of the Board of Directors.
Pybus, who had been in the job for some four months, has not returned to Bangladesh from South Africa since the Tiger's failure in the World Twenty20 in Sri Lanka. He gave BCB a condition to go on leave when Bangladesh would not be playing any series.
Papon said the BCB in an e-mail had asked Pybus to return to Bangladesh as soon as possible. "But in the return e-mail, Pybus said it will not be possible for him to work due to family reasons," he said.
This prompted the board to thrust Jurgensen in as the interim coach for the upcoming series in November.
The BCB President said a final decision regarding Pybus will be taken at the board's Nov 1 meeting.
