Strategically aiming at improving their batting lineup, Sri Lanka Cricket has hired former England cricketer Ian Bell as the batting coach for their forthcoming three-match Test series against England. Having 118 Tests under his belt for England, the 42-year-old is anticipated to offer the Sri Lankan team insightful analysis and direction as they get ready for this challenging tour.
This hiring marks a sequence of recent developments inside the Sri Lankan coaching staff. Following the resignation of Chris Silverwood, the former captain of Sri Lanka, last month Sanath Jayasiriya was appointed the temporary head coach. Having been with the team since April 2022, Silverwood departed his post for "personal reasons," according to Sri Lanka Cricket.
