Cricket Australia's Centre of Excellence snap up departing Bangladesh coach http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Stuart-Grant-Law-c91460 – Cricket News Update
Inside 24 hours since announcing he was quitting the Bangladesh national coach's job, Stuart Law has agreed to take up a parallel role with Cricket Australia's Centre of Excellence (COE), confirmed by Cricket Australia (CA) in a statement on Tuesday.
The 43-year-old former http://www.senore.com/Cricket/James-Darren-Siddons-c65582, announced on Monday that he will not be extending his tenure with Bangladesh Cricket Board beyond one year and will leave the
Bengali Tigers in June.
Law had also served the Sri Lankan team as assistant coach with http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013 last year and moved to Bangladesh for a more authoritative role.
"The opportunity to return home to be closer with family and work in Brisbane with Australia's established and emerging talent was too good to pass up," Law was quoted as saying in a CA statement.
"I thank the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Bangladesh-c747 Cricket Board and the Bangladesh players for their support and will be watching their progress with keen interest over the coming months and years," he added further.
In his new role with Cricket Australia, Law will be the high performance coach, at Centre of Excellence (COE), working as deputy to COE head coach http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Troy-James-Cooley-c94429. He will start his new role with Cricket Australia after serving the notice period with the Bangladesh
Cricket Board.
"Stuart is a current international coach with recent demonstrable success and we're fortunate to have secured his services,” the Centre of Excellence manager, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Belinda-Jane-Clark-c47560 said in a statement.
"His knowledge of the sub-continent and England, and his experience with Sri Lanka and Bangladesh, will bring a global perspective to the COE," http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Clark-c51118 hoped.
Bangladesh’s upcoming short tour of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755 will be in all probability Law’s last international assignment with the Bengali Tigers. However, the former Australian cricketer, who played one test and 54 One Day Internationals for his country, is a bit reluctant
about touring the troubled country.
Law has urged both BCB and PCB to ensure fool proof security for the Bangladesh players and support staff during the short tour.
