As per the same Cricinfo report, the team's results were accompanied by growing tensions within the dressing room as the losing run continued.
Following an end-of-season review, Birmingham Phoenix management, led by Warwickshire director of cricket James Thomas, decided that a coaching change was required ahead of the 2027 campaign.
Former Warwickshire players Jonathan Trott and Ian Bell could emerge as candidates, particularly after criticism over the lack of local representation in Phoenix's men's squad during the 2026 season.
