Mushtaq Ahmed's successful position as a coach for spin bowling was demonstrated by Rishad Hossain's outstanding performance at the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. The Bangladeshi squad desired a long-term contract extension for this Pakistani coach. However, Mushtaq ultimately closed the Bangladesh chapter.

Prior to taking over Bangladesh, this former great cricket player from Pakistan made a pledge to the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB). As the cliché goes, he is leading the England U-19 team. The announcement that Mushtaq will be the England U-19 team's spin bowling coach has been verified by Pakistani media outlet Pakpassion.net. Mushtaq's new task starts with a four-day game against the young team of Sri Lanka.

Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) sources also confirmed the truth about Mushtaq's departure. After the last 2 BCB board meetings, BCB President and Sports Minister of the People's Republic of Bangladesh Nazmul Hassan Papon told the media, “We are ready to extend the contract with Mushtaq. On the other hand, we are also looking for some new options. Let's see what options we have. We have contract with Hathurusingha till February.”

For the time being, Bangladesh is unable to accept any more coaches other than those for the spin coach position. At least until the ICC Champions Trophy in 2025, head coach Chandika Hathurusingha is anticipated to serve as the panel's leader.
