Gazi Ashraf Hossain, Bangladesh's manager-turned-coach who last week announced his resignation after his team failed to win a single match in Kuala Lumpur's Commonwealth Games, has not yet tendered it in writing to the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB).
The former national skipper, who was surprisingly named as coach of the team last month instead of his regulation job as manager, informed this to the Daily Star yesterday.
He said he would submit his resignation very soon.
When asked why had he accepted the job (of coach) for which he was not ready, Mr. Hossain said, "Cricket was going through a crisis at that time when they (BCB) named me as coach. As a cricketer I thought not to let them down."
