Now that I have the responsibility. Now I will look for alternatives, I will see if I can find someone better than him, if I can find someone of similar quality or not.'
'Then I will talk to the rest, the CEO is there, I will talk to those who worked before. Then...actually I haven't moved from that position yet.'-Farooq Ahmed added.
Earlier, Hathurusinghe spoke about his future. The Lankan coach, who is currently touring Pakistan with the team, said, 'I have no idea what is going on in Bangladesh (cricket board). Talking about my future, I am looking forward to serving as long as the contract lasts. If the board changes and they want to change, I don't have a problem with that. If they ask me to continue, if they are happy with me, I will gladly do the duty.'
