Even if you bring the best coach of the world you can't perform because Bangaldesh players lack that temperament and need a bit more skill. Let them be men and accept the responsibility. Let the fans too admit that Bangaladesh didn't deserve a spot in the quarter final. This will be the first step for future success.

This is the nature of profession sports. But there is justification here.
You can drop a player or two for continued bad performance or negative impact on the team. When the WHOLE team fails twice in a world cup in the fashion we did, the person taking the fall HAS to be the HEAD COACH.
With the same mistakes being repeated, it means one of three things.. (1) The coach did not get the players he wanted, (2) He did not teach/coach/prepare successfully or (3) He is unable to get through to these players.
Now there was never a doubt about the ability of the players in the XV. They whitewashed a Kiwi side, beat an English side and as most of Siddons-apologists/defenders will tell you are a far more improved BD side than any other imaginable. So that leaves 2 or 3. Either way, the Head Coach needs to be changed. Whether its a sacking or not extending the contract thats just details.
Personally, now that the decision is made about not extending and if the AUS result has no impact on his future with BCB, there is no need to keep him around for those 3 matches. IP and JF have enough experience to manage without him for a 3 ODI series until a decision is made on his replacement.
