My current team:

Tamim
Zunaid / Imrul / Anybody else
Mushfiq Note
Rakibul
Riyad
Shakib
Dhiman
Naeem
Shahadat
Rubel / Rasel
Shafi / Rasel

Whilst my respect for Mushfiq's batting has soared, my view of his wicketkeeping is still negative. Basically, he is not good enough. So, my long cherished view is that he should be in as a specialist batsman. [ only in test matches. LIke Sangakarra he may have to put the gloves on for ODI's ]. Hence, No.3 does not pose a problem and, hopefully, this will diminish the chances of the regular early batting collapse.
Riyad promotes himself and he should come in ahead of Shakib. Dhiman is a good keeper and a perfectly adequate No.7. Naeem will give solidity to the batting. Who knows what talent he will also reveal !

The bowling can be selected according to the pitch and conditions. Even a spinner could come in with one pacer dropped.
