Sri Lankan cricket head backs coaches dismissal
Friday, Jan 27, 2012 Filed Under :Planet Talk Instant News
The Sri Lanka cricket board president has spoken out in support of the decision to sack Australian coach Geoff Marsh just three months into his contract.
Marsh had signed up for two years with the Sri Lankan team but has already been replaced by South Africa’s Graham Ford.
This latest appointment will make Ford the fourth coach since former coach Trevor Bayliss, also Australian, stepped down after the 2011 World Cup final last April, Times of India reported.
Speaking about Marsh’s departure, cricket president Upali Dharmadasa said in a statement: “We will reap the benefits of these changed in the fullness of time.”
The announcement comes just days after skipper Tillakaratne Dilshan decided to quit his post.
Former team captain Arjuna Ranatunga lashed out at the change of coach, describing it as a “unprofessional”.
Sri Lanka will compete in the Tri-Nation Series in Australia with their opening match set for February 5th against the host nation.
