Mushtaq Ahmed will be available for Bangladesh national team's upcoming two-match Test series in Pakistan.
Bangladesh's spin bowling unit during the T20 World Cup in USA and the Caribbean was coached by Pakistani legendary spin bowler and he has since taken up a coaching job with the England U-19 team.
However, BCB operations chairman Jalal Yunus confirmed that Mushtaq will be available for the Pakistan tour.
"Mushtaq is available for the Pakistan series. However, since he has some own programmes, he will be engaged till December," Yunus told reporters in Mirpur on Wednesday.
"We will try to have a long-term contract with his after January. We are not sure if we will certainly get him, but we will try and we are getting positive vibes," the BCB official added.
Meanwhile, Yunus confirmed that head coach Chandika Hathurusingha will join the team's training after returning from Australia on August 2.
The two Tests will take place between August 21 and September 3,
