SOUNDBITE (English) Heath Streak, Bangladesh bowling coach:
(On Ali-Amin Hossain being sent home)
"Obviously we are disappointed that he's had to go, but I think Shaiful coming is a very experienced campaigner. So it won't affect us too much. Our focus is to focus on the upcoming games which are very important for us."

SOUNDBITE (English) Heath Streak, Bangladesh bowling coach:
(On missing out on the match against Australia due to the weather)
"We did practice although it was indoors. We practised in Brisbane, which was actually quite good for us because the indoor wickets are quite quick and bouncy. We did make the best use of our time. We came early, we played a lot of cricket, we practised hard so I think it's important the guys had a little bit of rest and recuperation. We've had a few guys who have been a little bit tired because of the workloads that we had in the preparation for the tournament. Hopefully you'll see us continuing."

SOUNDBITE (English) Heath Streak, Bangladesh bowling coach:
(On upcoming opponents Sri Lanka)
"They're a very experienced side. In terms of the overall experience, if not the most experienced they are up there in the top two most experienced sides. With guys like Kumar Sangakkara, (Tillakaratne) Dilshan, they've got some very experienced guys up at the top of the order. In this competition we've seen early wickets are very important. If you do (get early wickets) you get the upper hand. Like any other team we'll be planning to try and expose and get early wickets. If not, you've got to have plans to try and contain the opposition and get the break throughs you need as well."
