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.

All those three points matter only when there is credibility for the players.Bangladesh players lacks in technique when they come to international level.and National team is not the place for doing that.but in Bangladesh the national coaches are doing that.correcting their technique.and the players have shown improvement in those department.(now if the players have done that,then 2 and 3 are done)only after that can the team think about preparing and working on plans to win matches..Siddons most likely have to go.but i think he has given bangladesh team a lot.and his work will keep their effects.but the main problem lies in our domestic setup..i would be happy if the management works on the domestic infrastructure.rather than making siddons a scrape goat.
