Chris Silverwood became the head coach of the Sri Lanka national team

Chris Silverwood’s career as a player can hardly be called outstanding. The Englishman looked good in his clubs and the national team, but a large number of injuries did not allow Chris to build a high-quality career.

Chris Silverwood became the head of the England national team at the beginning of October 2019, but some controversial decisions (such as the rejection of the candidacies of James Anderson, Stuart Broad and Jack Lynch) caused Chris to be dismissed from the post of head coach of the English national team at the very beginning of February 2022.

Yesterday it became known that the famous Englishman is starting a new chapter in his training career. Chris Silverwood became the coach of the Sri Lanka national cricket team in all formats.

Sri Lanka’s closest rival is Bangladesh

Chris has already managed to share his emotions after being appointed to a fresh position.

“I am thrilled that I now will become part of the Sri Lanka national team – I want to get started as soon as possible. This team has an extremely good selection of performers, and I’m looking forward to finally having the opportunity to meet with my gamblers,” Silverwood said.

Recall that Sri Lanka’s closest rival is Bangladesh.
