Bangladesh women’s team are all set to leave for the UAE tomorrow to partake in the upcoming ninth edition of the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup, scheduled to run from 3–20 October, after having suffered a winless drought in the last four instalments. Bangladesh head coach Hashan Tillakaratne, in an interview with The Daily Star’s Samsul Arefin Khan, discussed his team’s overall preparation and the challenges that await them, among other things, after the Tigresses underwent an official photoshoot at Mirpur’s Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium. The excerpts from the interview are as follows:
The calm and quiet surroundings of BKSP, the national sports institute in Savar, provided the backdrop for two different teams' preparations heading into two different kinds of objectives yesterday, with the weather making for interesting training conditions.
Bangladesh women’s cricket team entered their first-ever bilateral series against Australia on a high following a good run of results in recent series against India and Pakistan at home and South Africa away. Following a 77-run loss in the third T20I which saw Australia whitewash Bangladesh in both ODI and T20I series, Bangladesh head coach Hashan Tillakaratne talked to The Daily Star’s Abdullah Al Mehdi on the Tigresses' difficult road ahead, with India series and Asia Cup to come before the T20 World Cup at home.
An important figure behind Sri Lanka’s emergence as a cricketing force in the world, Hashan Tilakaratne is someone who possesses vast knowledge about the game. The former Lankan captain, who was an integral part of the 1996 World Cup-winning Sri Lankan side, has been in charge of the Bangladesh women’s team since November 2022. During an exclusive interview with The Daily Star’s Abdullah Al Mehdi, the 56-year-old talked about the mindset and the relationship a coach needs to have with the cricketers, the recipe for success in the World Cup, and his expectations from the Tigers ahead of the mega event in India.
