The Bangladesh Cricket Board on Wednesday appointed David Moore as their head of programmes for the next two years.

The 58-year-old Australian will be responsible for planning, devising strategies and implementing the HP and Bangladesh Tigers programmes to ensure that these programmes directly benefit the national team’s interests.

“Moore brings in extensive experience as a high-performance general manager and coach developer with expertise in coaching, player and coach development and administration both internationally and in Australia,” said BCB in a press release.

Moore has served Cricket NSW as its General Manager Cricket Performance and Head of Coach Development and was a Senior Coach at Cricket Australia’s Centre of Excellence.

Moore has worked as an assistant coach of the West Indies Cricket Team and became the side’s Head Coach for the tour of England in 2007.  He has coached the Bermuda National Team also.

“I’m very excited to be commencing my role as head of programmes at the BCB. I look forward to working with the Head Coach, his coaching and support staff and players to assist them to unleash their potential,” Moore was quoted in the press release.

“I am delighted to have been appointed to oversee and develop some very important programs that will provide opportunities for elite cricketers to perform in the international arena,” he concluded.
