“We need a coach who has an impact and influence on the team,” Yunus said shortly after the second Test in Dhaka.
“You will soon see changes. We are trying. We want a strong team that can play quality, and a highly competitive team.
“We went close to beating India but it is tough to beat this team. We beat England and Australia in this ground, but India is a tougher side in these conditions.
“In the mainstream, motivation is important. We don't just want a good coach; he has to be a mentor.
“There's less scope to teach them [players] skills at this level, but the coach needs to review performances with the players after a series.”
