Jamie Siddons to Work with Bangladesh A Team
Former Australian cricketer Jamie Siddons has announced his decision to step down as the batting coach of the Bangladesh national cricket team. Siddons joined the Bangladesh Cricket Board in February 2022 for a second stint as the batting coach.
Before that, Siddons was appointed as the batting consultant for the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) in 2021, and later he was included in the national team’s support staff.
Additionally, he previously served as the head coach from 2007 until 2011. However, he has now decided to focus on nurturing the country’s future players with the A-Team.
Siddons Confirms the Announcement
Siddons took to Facebook on Monday, May 1, to make the announcement. He stated that he will no longer be working with the national team, but will instead be concentrating on developing players who are not yet part of the squad. According to Siddons, these players are improving every day and are getting ready for their chance to represent their country.
The 59-year-old went on to say that he loves coaching young players about the game and that he and the Bangladesh Cricket Board have worked together to make it happen. Siddons believes that most of the skill development, improvement, and training takes place in the nets and heat when grinding it out in the nets at Mirpur.
Siddons’ decision to step down as the batting coach of the Bangladesh national cricket team was reached amicably with the board. He is now looking forward to working with the country’s future players with the A-Team and the Tigers.
Details on Siddons’ New Position
Siddons will now guide Bangladesh A during their upcoming home series against West Indies A. The Caribbean side is set to arrive in Bangladesh on May 11 to play three four-day Tests in Sylhet. The first game will start on May 16, followed by the second game on May 23, and the final match is scheduled from May 30 to June 2.
Siddons wishes good luck to the team, which has left for England to play against Ireland. He added that he is looking forward to working with the A-Team and the Tigers in the future.
Last Report on Siddons
Before the announcement of his new position, Siddons recently praised Mushfiqur Rahim for his incredible century in the recent Dhaka Test against Ireland. Siddons was also impressed with the performance of Mehidy Hasan Miraz, who scored a crucial fifty in the match. Siddons believes Miraz is now a competent batsman, having proven himself in ODIs and Tests.
Overall, Siddons was pleased with the team’s performance and believes they are building towards being a strong contender in the World Cup.
In conclusion, Siddons has left his role as the batting coach of the Bangladesh national cricket team to focus on nurturing the country’s future players. He loves coaching young players about the game, and believes that skill development, improvement, and training take place in the nets and heat when grinding it out in the nets at Mirpur.
