Craig McMillan to miss Sri Lanka tour due to personal tragedy

Former New Zealand batsman Craig McMillan, who had been appointed Bangladesh batting consultant for the Tour of Sri Lanka 2020, has informed the BCB that he was not able to undertake the role due to a loss in the family.

BCB CEO Nizam Uddin Chowdhury said: “Craig has communicated to us that his father has passed away recently and therefore it would not be possible for him to take up the batting consultant’s position of the National Team for the upcoming tour at this moment of grief. We fully understand his situation. Our sympathies are with Craig and his family during this difficult time.”

Bangladesh is expected to tour Sri Lanka later this month for a 3 match Test series which will begin in mid October. (NewsWire)
