Bangladesh Cricket Board’s (BCB) efforts to avoid touring Pakistan for the Test series are not bearing fruit as the team’s head coach, Russell Domingo, has also spoken up that he’s willing to tour Pakistan.
After BCB’s repeated attempts to put the blame on the team management, Russell Domingo has openly said that he has no problems visiting Pakistan if the board gives a green signal to the team.
If the team is given clearance to go, then I will go. If the team isn’t given clearance, then I definitely won’t go.
Earlier, the BCB tried to hide behind the team management, saying that the team management comprising of foreign professionals is not willing to tour Pakistan.
