Joseph Scuderi new Bangladesh bowling coach for England Tour

[Miraz]

BCB has appointed Joseph Scuderi, former South Australian all-rounder and a friend of Jamie Siddons, as the temporary bowling coach of Bangladesh for the England tour.

Knowns as Joe Scuderi in the cricket circle, he was the South Australian cricketer of the year for 1992-1993 while Jamie Siddons received the award in 1993-94 and again in 1997-98.

Here 's Joe Scuderi's cricinfo profile

I hope he will be able to guide our pace bowling trio, particularly Rubel and Shafiul.

Good news! Alhamdulillah!
Warm welcome to coach Joe Scuderi to Bangladesh team Management.
Best wishes to Scuderi, team Bangladesh and the bowlers of Bangladesh!

[auntu]

Really great improvement.
A refreshing news after quite sometimes. I hope these two Aussies would blend it right.

[Dilscoop]

So he isn't permanent. I thought they were getting a permanent coach from Aus.

JS's friend? Oh gosh? JK, I don't wanna be too critical here. But we all know what happened in the IPL. Warne and Buccannanana kept bringing their friends in.

Nepotism involves family.

In football and even cricket head coaches appoint their coaching team. It is important that all the coaches are on the same wavelength. So I think this is a good move. He has played 82 FC matches so he is quite experienced. Does anyone know about his coaching career?

[Dilscoop]

It would be funny if our bowlers turns out to be better than him.

[Nadim]

hmm another JS


good luck to him.

Then Jose Mourinho shouldn't be coaching Ronaldo, Kaka and Higuain?

[dolcevita]

100000 $??

That. A poor choice : this guy has never played an ODI or a TEST match...

Furthermore why they. Don't hire a genuine BOWLER ?
He is an all rounder

He was South Australian player of the year for 1992-93. That's not something you can earn easily. He is defnitely a better cricketer than many players who played ODI cricket for other countries.

Last year's SA cricketer of the year was Ryan Harris who demolished England today, Shaun Tait was before him and Darren Lehman was awarded couple of times.

I think he might turn out to be a good choice if he can isnpire our bowlers. I hope he doesn't have the same defeatist mindset like his South Australian mate.

when did it became a rule that a COACH has to be a good player too?

Nepotism is actually favoritism granted to relatives and/or close friends although in most cases people use it in the context of relatives.

The argument you state is the only reason why I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt at this point without even knowing much about him...I still wish we got (or hopefully get in the future) somebody with at least some international exposure as opposed to just FC experience.

Ronaldo, Kaka were already good players. Jose did not create them. Our bowlers need some one who can create them into a decent bowler. They need more than guidance. For ex. Sachin, Sehwag, Dravid dont need GK. But players like Rohit Sharma, Raina, Kohil can use him.

And what's with this recent soccer comparison with every single argument. Lot of you are doing this recently

[bdtiger]

seems like a low profile coach. I don't expect anything from him except paying a high salary which will be wasted. I hope my assumption will be false.

[Nafi]

Too many pretentious posts on here.

For all you know, this guy may be a seam bowling guru. We have never met him, but only time can be our judge.

[Dilscoop]

People thought Champaka R. would be really good for our bowlers. He created Vaas and all that blah blah. He is helping Rubel Hossain to become a great bowler, blah blah. I read all that on the news papers. What happened to him? Shahadat Hossain answers: "He ruined me by changing my bowling action". I said this in some other thread, when we fans think something would be best for our boys and out cricket, it turns out to be total opposite. So considering that, I hope this guy does something magical. No jinx (knock on wood)

[Baundule]

I hope he has a different mindset than Siddons. With his experience he should be good enough as a bowling coach. Time will tell. Our bowlers do not need to learn any new bowling technique; all they need is good control over what they already can do.

[simon]

now get ready to see some personal achievement from our bowlers.
just kidding,
wish him & our bowlers good luck.

[LateCut]

The name seems familiar. There is an innovative engine call Scuderi Engine (http://www.scuderigroup.com/ ). I wish our bowling team will be as efficient as these engines promised to be.

[Tendulkar_Mcgrath]

Coach pochondo hoilo na

[beshideshi]

Scuderi is definitely not the of the highest caliber,but seems to be a very good first class cricketer. Played for SA from 1988-1999/0. Played for Australian Academy in 1988 and was thought to be a national team prospect, but his bowling and decent batting never really flourished enough to earn him a spot in the team, a promise never fulfilled.
Alike the Bangladeshi players he peaked way too early and found it difficult to cement his SA spot after 1992/3, and played very few games after that period. So his bowling average of 30 is inflated by his off colour years. I hope he manages to help the bowlers a great deal, he has been living in Lancashire for a while,should be aware of the bowling conditions and pitches.

here is a scrap book page of John Scuderi

PS: He shared few years of first class cricket with JS, should work in our favour.

Totally agree. Plus he was SA's cricketer of the year a couple times. You don't get that if you don't have skills.
