riyad is a decent player but his problem is he struggles to play up the order and everyone up the order are playing well. thus he is relegated to #8, which he is doing a fine job at, but if the selectors want to go with an extra bowler or a better gloveman (if there is one) then riyad's spot in the team becomes a question mark. if you had to drop one batter from the current team (including shakib) who would it be? mominul got a 50 on debut, ash just got 190, mushy 200, nasir 100, shakib is quality and riyad clearly has trouble batting higher as his stats show, therefore if a batsman is to be dropped it should be riyad. if he performed up the order when he played there then you would drop mominul but he doesn't.
