Sri Lanka’s cricket board on Friday appointed former Test player Chaminda Vaas as national fast bowling coach, replacing Australian David Sekar who resigned just before the West Indies tour, reports AFP. Vaas, 47, is the most successful Sri Lankan fast bowler, taking 355 wickets in 111 Tests and 400 scalps in 322 one-day internationals. He retired from Test cricket in 2009, a year after ending his ODI career. The cricket board cited “personal reasons” for Sekar’s decision to quit the job that he undertook in December 2019 but the 54-year-old has not yet commented publicly.
