DHAKA (Reuters) - The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has appointed West Indian Ottis Gibson as the national team's new bowling coach on a two-year contract, replacing South African Charl Langeveldt who left last month.

Langeveldt had a two-year contract with Bangladesh but was released after less than five months so he could take up a similar role with Cricket South Africa.
