Bangladesh’s new batting coach Jamie Siddons has tested positive for Covid-19. Jalal Yunus, the BCB's cricket operations committee chairman, confirmed to the Dhaka-based Prothom Alo that Siddons has mild symptoms.

The 57-year-old Australian, who arrived in Dhaka last week, didn’t initially have a role specified by the BCB - board president Nazmul Hassan had said in December that it was “not yet finalised in which area he will work in, whether it is the High Performance, Under-19s or the senior team.”
