The BCB has terminated
the contract of assistant coach Ruwan Kalpage after he failed to turn up for
work by August 16. Media committee chairman Jalal Yunus said Kalpage did not
respond to the BCB's latest letter.
"We had sent him a
letter asking him to return to work by August 16, but he didn't respond to us.
So the BCB has terminated his contract," Yunus told ESPNcricinfo.
On August 17, BCB CEO
Nizamuddin Chowdhury had said that the board would "take action"
against Kalpage for not turning up by the deadline. Kalpage and the BCB had
been in constant touch in the previous few weeks, after he voiced concerns over
his safety in Dhaka.
