In what could be a big move for Rajshahi Kings and the Bangladesh Premier League in general, the franchise have appointed Daniel Vettori as the coach of the team for the 2018 and 2019 edition of the Bangladesh Premier League.

"With his experience as a specialist coach in the T20 format, Daniel will not only help the team but the local youngsters to learn and excel in this very exciting format," Rajshahi Kings CEO Tahmeed Huq said, according to Cricinfo.

The Kiwi legend is already the head coach of Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Indian Premier League, Brisbane Heats in the Big Bash League and Middlesex in the Natwest T20 Blast.

And now with him in the Bangladesh Premier League, his addition will provide a huge boost for the league and its reputation.
