Bangladesh cricket team returned home from India on Sunday morning after a disastrous World Cup where they won two out of nine matches. The seven-match loss, the latest to Australia in Pune on Saturday, was arguably Bangladesh’s worst performance in World Cup history after much was expected of the team.

All the players except captain Shakib Al Hasan returned with the same flight. Shakib had already returned home ahead of the Australia match due to the injury.
Some members of the coaching staff flew home from India and did not return to Dhaka with the team.
Only head coach Chandik Hathurusingha returned to Dhaka. Bowling coach Allan Donald and performance analyst Shrinivas Chandrasekaran have already bid farewell to the team in India as they will not renew their contracts after the World Cup.
The rest of the coaching staff will arrive in Dhaka later this month ahead of the two-match Test series at home against New Zealand starting on November 28 in Sylhet.
