Who do you would like to see as next Coach of Bangladesh?

_Rafi_ · #1 March 19, 2011, 08:26 AM

Siddons era probably over or has to be over after the failure. BCB now has to decide on a new coach. Who do you think fit for as main coach for BD? And what type of coach you want as main coach? Technical or tactical or motivator?

Equinox · #2 March 19, 2011, 08:27 AM

Phil Simmons.

what can coach do to turn around a nation without any real cricket players?

_Rafi_ · #5 March 19, 2011, 08:35 AM

As for me, I would like to see a South-African as main coach. Their coaches are good motivator.
Players from Australia's 99 world cup squad will also be a good choice. Michael Bevan or Steve Waugh in that case top my list. Shane Warne, Mcgrath, Mark Waugh, Martin, Lehman, Flemming too much good option from there. I would be happy if any of them agree to work with us.

Isnaad · #6 March 19, 2011, 08:37 AM

Saurav Ganguly. He should be way more dedicated than Siddons. And experience of International Cricket should help. Dont forget the dui banglar shomporko unnoti and more support for bd..

As the quality of cricket in the NCL improves, develop consistent performers with genuine ability in the A Team. That will bridge some of the monumental gap between our alleged first class/list A and the highest level, AND help our guys sustain whatever success they may achieve once they make it.

- Stomp-out lobbying and nepotism.

Get guys who can qualitatively analyze statistics within the reality of our context, and select players with the potential to deliver, and the talent to actually apply that potential in the middle. The selectors MUST attend games and select players based on a reasonable and transparent criterion.

I suggest Shakil Kasem for the job as long as he is allowed to do what he must. Absolute power to achieve specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and time-phased results. Needless to say, we must have absolute accountability in return. By us I mean Bangladeshi tax payers who pay 25% income tax and much more in Corporate and VAT payments. WE WANT OUR MONEY'S WORTH!

2. A Head Coach who is: -

- Positive, passionate, proactive and a disciplinarian. A motivator who believes in our guys more than they do, but is tough enough to hold them accountable.

- Capable of getting through to our guys and teaching what he needs to teach, and when they don't learn, be caring enough to send them down a level.

- Quick to accept responsibility and slow to accept praise.

Try Ian Pont at least as interim coach, and give him the right players to work with.

Firstly, I believe we need a coach with good track record in coaching, not just as a player who has just some wins under his belt. He also has to be a good motivator as we are a young team. Better if he was captain of a good side. I also believe he has to posses a somewhat rigid personality which is very important in our subcontinental culture where politics comes into play. Another important aspect is communitaion. The coach has to understand the people and culture of this country in oder to communicate to the players properly. The language barrier also has been highlighted previously betweeen our players and overseas coaches.

Considering the above criteria I have made a personal choice and its Sourav Ganguly. I know Ganguly never coached a team but I admire his leadership quality and the way he changed the indian team. I believe his experience as a captain can make up for his lack in coaching experience. Ganguly took over the leadership when indian cricket was in disarray with match fixing scandals and he gave the team a winning habbit both in India and overseas. I heard the stories about him backing up the young players. He took a stand for the players he wanted in his team and he got the best out of them. The likes of Shehwag, Zaheer, Harbhajan & Yuvraj always acknowledged his contribution to the rise of their careers. For example, he assured Shehwag of playing 30 ODIs when Shehwag came into the team. Because of this he had a good authirity over his team which we desparately need in our coach 'cause our players might often recquire a little bit of 'danda' as they can be little reluctant sometimes. He will also be able to communicate better as he knows our culture and speaks the same language. I guess he given up hope for playing in IPL and hopefully wont mind taking over head coach's position of a national team if we can pay him upto his expectation.

Having said that all, I know that BCB will never appoint him 'cause they wouldn't want someone with such a rigid personality since that might potentially force them to compromise at times in front of Ganguly's strong will. But thats just a wish I have as I desperately want our team to play upto its potential and win matches.

Stephen Fleming!

stephen fleming or gary kirsten

Naimul_Hd · #11 March 19, 2011, 10:06 AM

I say, Phil Simmons who is currently coaching Irish team !

Navarene · #12 March 19, 2011, 10:06 AM

Minhazul Abedin Nannu. Laugh at me as much you want, but I will stick to a deshi coach with good cricket brain.

shakirshuvo · #13 March 19, 2011, 10:10 AM

Probably a South African or a Pakistani... and Wasim Akram as bowling coach.

Rifat_02 · #14 March 19, 2011, 10:11 AM

Kirsten wont come. He is leaving india job due to family reasons.

I really want Ganguly to take the job but i think khaled mahmud once said he wont be available full time. He would be really good for our batsmen & for development of young players as well

I will put a Bangladeshi in. I will go with Navarene and also ask for Nannu.

tanvir_nus · #16 March 19, 2011, 10:15 AM

I want to try a Bangladeshi coach for a change. And only one name comes to mind who will do justice. Aminul Islam Bulbul.

Ajfar · #17 March 19, 2011, 10:16 AM

With all due respect to ganguly he will cause too much attention from the media and that is something we don't need. We have OZ tour in a few weeks. Why not stick with someone who is already in the coaching staff. Give pont or Fontain a try now

Why would people who were world champions want to coach the pathetic BD team? Maybe they are too tired of being succesful and want to fail then they will coach BD

Myself! I'm aggressive and know the game. And it means something to me rather than being just a profession which it is for these foreign coaches. It's just a job for them!

As long as we have a head coach who has adequate coaching credentials (Level 3), we don't need to worry. What should concern us is the lack of quality playing surfaces around the country, the lack of qualified coaches at age-group and regional levels, as well as the lack of a quality first-class domestic competition. We need to focus on infrastructure. I think we should persist with Jamie Siddons and persist with the core of the current national team as well (Shakib, Tamim, Imrul, Mashrafe, Shafiul, Rubel, Razzak, Mushfique).

wasi90lkv1 · #23 March 19, 2011, 11:01 AM

i think head coach should be a bangladeshi.

batting, fielding and bowling should have specialist coaches from foreign countries.

Shubho · #24 March 19, 2011, 11:05 AM

Ideally, no-one apart from the players should be Bangladeshi...our Bangladeshi bhais have mismanaged our cricket infrastructure from the start.

Head of BCB should be a foreigner.
CEO of BCB should be a foreigner.
All committee heads of the BCB should be foreigners.
All Selectors should be foreigners.
All national team coaching staff should be foreigners.
All age-group coaches should be foreigners.
All club coaches should be foreigners.
All curators should be foreigners.

Catskills · #25 March 19, 2011, 11:12 AM

We have been humiliated both by WI and SA. Both cannot be coinsidences. There cannot be any exxuse except we don't know how to face fast bowlers. Siddon, being a coach didn't take time to teach our cricketers how to play fast bowl. He should be fired. We should definitely bring someone from SA, someone like Garry Kristen.
