Dhaka: Bangladesh bowling coach Courtney Walsh is surprised that England One-day captain Eoin Morgan and batsman Alex Hales have pulled out of their forthcoming tour. Morgan and Hales decided not to be a part of the tour party due to security concern.

The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) said wicketkeeper Jos Buttler will lead the One-day side in Morgan's absence. But, Walsh, who flew in on September 3 to take up the job of the team's bowling mentor, is not amused.
"Well, a little bit surprised with the tour going ahead - but they've got their personal reasons I'm sure," Walsh told BBC. "But in terms of cricket, as long as the tour is going ahead, you want to have everyone involved and the best people on the tour."
The Jamaican, however, is confident that Bangladesh can provide the tourists with proper security arrangements.
