Former Lankan Batting Coach Thilan Samaraweera Included In New Zealand Team Support Staff For SL Tour

Former Sri Lankan batting coach Thilan Samaraweera has been included in the support staff of the New Zealand cricket team for the upcoming Sri Lanka your.

Samaraweera ended his stint with the Sri Lankan cricket team after their dismal performance in the batting department in several tournaments.

Before taking up the coaching assignment in Sri Lanka, he served as the batting coach of the Bangladesh cricket team.

It is not immediately clear whether Samaraweera will be retained by the New Zealand team after the Sri Lanka series.
