Bangladesh are considering the idea, put forward by Gary Kirsten, of appointing separate coaches for red and white-ball cricket, reports ESPNcricinfo.
Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) president Nazmul Hassan said they are still mulling their coaching staff, with primary focus on batting personnel.
Hassan said the candidates the BCB has spoken to are "not interested" in taking charge of the Test side. That could mean the board appoints two separate head coaches for Tests and limited-overs cricket, or one coach along with "two or three" batting consultants.
So far, only England have had a separate coach for white-ball cricket, when they appointed Ashley Giles in 2012. Australia have also appointed separate coaches: Ricky Ponting, Steve Rixon and Justin Langer for limited-overs series in the last few years. India considered the idea in 2015.
Hassan had met with Kirsten at his office, which rounded off his three-day trip in Dhaka.
On Tuesday, Kirsten met with players, selectors, a coach and the BCB senior management.
