Shib Sankar appointed Bengal women head coach

The Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) on Wednesday appointed former India pacer Shib Sankar Paul as head coach of the state's senior women's team.

Paul, who was previously coaching Mizoram U-23 Men's team, said: "It's homecoming for me. I feel honoured to take up this new role. When CAB president Sourav Ganguly and joint secretary Avishek Dalmiya asked me I didn't think twice to grab this new challenge."
"There are many talented players in the team and having the likes of Jhulan Goswami only makes work easier. I will put my best and with the help of all the staff hope to do deliver the goods."
