BHF decision on banned players, coach today
Suspended forward Rasel Mahmud Jimmy, defender Imran Hasan Pintoo and goalkeeper Zahid Hossain are set to get their suspensions lifted when the executive committee of the Bangladesh Hockey Federation (BHF) sits for a meeting today.
Jimmy, Pintoo and Zahid have already served one year of their two-year domestic and three-year international suspensions handed last year due to disciplinary reasons as well as deliberate under-performance in the Asia Cup in 2013.
The BHF working committee has already recommended lifting of the ban on these three players to the executive committee after the suspension on midfielder Kamruzzaman Rana was lifted.
Today's meeting will also decide about a foreign coach for the national team as the already contacted Indian coach AK Bansal is believed to be unavailable. The meeting will likely approve appointment of Mamunur Rashid as the head coach until a foreign coach takes over, as per recommendations of the Coaches' Committee.
