Due to the coronavirus, there is no game any work at this moment. Like most of the employees, the foreign coaching staff of the Bangladesh team is also on indefinite leave. After the Zimbabwe series on 9 March, the coaches who left for their respective countries are stuck in lockdown.

Akram Khan, head of the BCB's cricket operation, told reporters said that after the situation gets normal they will review it and will take necessary action.

Joining the work of foreign coaches depends on two things. First, how much corona infection has come under control in the coaches' own country. Second, how much improvement the workplace situation in Bangladesh has. For all this reason they might have lost more than five-six of working months from this year.
