Mali Maketa Is Assistant Coach, Not Fielding Coach

The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has issued a clarification regarding a news report published in the media about the coaching staff responsibilities ahead of the national team’s upcoming tour of South Africa. The board stated that Mali Maketa had been incorrectly identified as the national team’s fielding coach for the upcoming tour, which is not accurate.

In a press release issued today, the BCB clarified that Mali Maketa is, in fact, the assistant coach of the Bangladesh national team. He will retain his position during the upcoming South Africa tour and continue to perform his designated duties and responsibilities.

The incorrect identification of Maketa as the fielding coach in some sections of the media created confusion. The cricket board has urged all concerned media outlets to correct the unintentional error and ensure that accurate information is disseminated.
