Soumya has batted once in the 6th position and twice in the 7th position, sure, we tried soumya down th order. 3 games is not trying someone in a position.

Also at the time as said soumya was out of form, the team wasn’t as balanced and Liton was also out of form. Liton did pretty well in the warmups, form him to get dropped when is finding his groove at this level after years, hopefully it doesn’t set him back again. I get why he was dropped, they picked Tamim, soumya and shakib to play ahead of him and Liton in shorter formats doesn’t play middle or lower order so mithun and mosa are getting picked ahead of him, but in saying that Liton was the one to show the best form out of himself, mithun and mosa in those practice games.
