Sports Desk: Russell Domingo took over as the head coach of Bangladesh in August 2019. But after taking charge, the South African coach did not get a chance to see the leadership of Tamim Iqbal.

Tamim became the full-time captain of the ODIs in March last year. But he could not lead the national team in a single match. Mashrafe bin Mortuza captained the series against Zimbabwe in March.

After that series, the game was stopped due to Corona. After that Bangladesh did not play any ODI.

Corona has an ODI series on Pakistani soil and an ODI series against Ireland. The Domingo-Tamim duo was never seen again. Now that opportunity is coming. And just a few hours later (January 20), the Tigers will play an ODI series against the West Indies, in which Tamim will lead the team.

Although not full-time, Tamim has the experience to lead the national team. In Mashrafe's absence, he led the country in a three-match ODI series against Sri Lanka in July 2019. Tamim also captained a Test against New Zealand in 2016 due to Mushfiqur Rahim's injury.

This time Domingo is looking forward to see Tamim's captaincy from the front. "This is the first time Tamim has led the team since I joined the team," said Tiger coach. I know he led the team in 2019.

I enjoy working with him so far. ' Domingo also greeted Tamim off the field with rave reviews. He said, ‘He is a very caring boy. He wants all the players in the team to be confident and comfortable.

He takes care of the mental condition of the players. I look forward to working with him and supporting him as much as possible. " Domingo added, ‘His mind is in the right place.

He is playing with the right goal in mind. She wants to do better. He has the ability to analyze his own leadership and performance thoroughly. She is very aware of it. He has the effort to get the captaincy off to a good start. '
