Aus coaches in SL shortlist
Afp, Colombo
Sri Lanka has short-listed a handful of Australian coaches to take over the national team, officials said Thursday. "Terry Oliver and Trevor Bayliss are under consideration," a Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) source told AFP. Local media speculated that a third Australian, former New Zealand coach Steve Rixon, may also be a contender. Sri Lanka is looking for a replacement for Australian Tom Moody, who quit after a one-day series against Pakistan in Abu Dhabi last month. A panel consisting of senior officials and former Sri Lankan captains in late May interviewed Oliver, who comes with good recommendations from the Australian state of Queensland. The final interview with Bayliss, a coach for New South Wales, was set to take place here later Thursday.
