BCB sacked Ruwa Kalpage

Main concern for all overseas coaches were raising security concerns in Bangladesh. All foreign coaches are provided extra security as a condition to return back to work. Since BCB has hired foreign coach for head coach position, fielding coach and strength coach. They all return to work and were addressed by provision of extra security for their safety concerns. Ruwan was however, not satisfied with extra security for safety.

BCB extended Ruwan Kalpage contract till ICC Cricket World Cup 2019. But now BCB terminated Sri Lankan ex player contract as an assistant coach. BCB is clearly disappointed with the way Kalpage has accessed the situation. No announcement has yet been made by BCB for hiring assistant head coach of Bangladesh cricket team.
