context_page_description: Steven John Rhodes is an English cricket coach and former cricketer. He was the former coach of the Bangladesh national cricket team, having been sacked on 8 July 2019 after Bangladesh's poor performance in the Cricket World Cup 2019. He was best known as a wicket-keeper, but was also a useful number six or seven batsman, making twelve first-class centuries.
  His father, William Rhodes, played more than 30 times for Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club in the early 1960s.
context_section_description: In May 2005, Worcestershire announced that Rhodes had been appointed Coach, following the departure of Tom Moody. He subsequently served as director of cricket between 2006 and 2017.
  On 7 June 2018 Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) appointed Rhodes head coach for the national team until the end of the 2020 ICC World Twenty20. In July 2018 Rhodes lost his first series as Bangladesh coach when West Indies won the two-match Test series 2–0. In the ODI series, Bangladesh defeated West Indies 2–1 and recorded their second ODI series victory in West Indies. Later, Bangladesh managed to beat West Indies in the T20I series with a 2–1 lead. Rhodes praised his team that they made a comeback and won the last two series after they were defeated in the Test series, and he was surprised that they won the T20 series against the world champions West Indies.
  In the last time, Bangladesh have won their first ever tournament final under Rhodes after failing  previous 6 times. Tri nation series between Bangladesh, Ireland and West Indies, the Tigers have beaten Windies by 5 Wicket and won the trophy first time ever in their history.
  In July 2019, Rhodes' contract with the BCB was terminated, following the team's eighth-place finish in the 2019 Cricket World Cup.
