39608 Richard Pybus steps down

The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has decided to discontinue with the services of Richard Pybus as the National Team Head Coach after he notified the Board of his unwillingness to continue in the post. National Team Bowling Coach Shane Jurgensen has been given the Head Coach's responsibility for next month's home series against the West Indies.

The Board also decided on some stern disciplinary measures against defaulting franchises of the first edition of the BPL T20. The issues will be further discussed in the next Board meeting on 1 November 2012.

The Board decided to initiate the process for the BCB elections. The Board will also hold discussions with the National Sports Council (NSC) with regard to some new amendments suggested by the NSC in the Amended BCB Constitution 2012.

The Board has approved the appointment of Australia's Stuart Karppinen as the BCB National Cricket Academy Performance Manager. Former India pace bowler Ranadeb Bose has been named coach under the Game Development Department.
