Former Bangladesh skipper Khaled Mahmud is likely to be roped in as the interim coach of the Bangladesh cricket team in case the country's board failed to find a foreign coach. Earlier this month, Chandika Hathurusingha had tendered his resignation in a letter during Bangladesh cricket team's disastrous tour of South Africa last month and now he is most likely to be appointed as Sri Lanka's head coach. Reflecting on Mahmud's chances of stepping in place of Hathurusingha, Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) Nazmul Hassan revealed that the possibilities of the former captain taking over are the "highest" even as they continued to look for a foreign coach.
