About Mushfiqur Rahim ... he is surely Bangladesh's next keeper ... but I think Bangladesh has the habit of playing rookies too early. Most test playing nations wait until the player is at least 22+ years old before throwing them into the international scene. Bangladesh tends to play players at 19 years old, which is just a tiny bit too early.

Rahim will have a huge career ahead of him. He'll be playing for Bangladesh for at least 12+ years, so there is no need to rush him. Pilot still has about 3 years left in him. He is really experienced and I think Bangladesh needs to continure to keep its squad experienced before rushing in new blood. But there no doubt is a LOT of good talent hanging around and each U/19 team keeps getting better and better.
