Domingo, who is currently in South Africa, said he would be back on assignment with Bangladesh A in October.

“This is to confirm that the rumors and speculations I have made to the Bangladesh Cricket Board are not true,” Domingo told ESPNcricinfo.

Going to work with the A team in Abu Dhabi in October:-

“I am trying to take my cricket there in the one-day and test formats. I am going to work with the A team in Abu Dhabi in October. I will be joining the national team in December.

As far as I’m concerned, it’s business as usual. I will continue the journey I have started. My contract is till November 2023. I am fully committed to Bangladesh Cricket Board for the next 15 months.”

Earlier this week, the BCB appointed S Sriram as the in charge of the T20I squad, replacing Domingo, although they stopped calling Sriram the head coach, using the term “technical advisor”.

Got more time to spend with My family:-

Domingo said at the time that he was happy with the arrangement as it gave him more time to prepare for the ODI and Test teams, as well as to spend time with his family in South Africa.

Russell took over the Bangladesh job in September 2019. Since then, he has overseen a second-placed ODI team in the World Cup Super League, winning a Test in New Zealand.
