If Saquib can be tried with success along with Nafees and Farhad( all of them young) than y not Mushfique? Afterall someday he will have to learn to play the likes of Lee and flintoff so y not now? The way u guys are talking abt the World cup, it seems like we are a serious contender for it. We must rather work on for 2011 WC. Plus everyone is aware of his Afrace scandal during the last WC. Wat has he given besides dropping a lot of catches and Bowling Sanwar Hossain at the end overs during Kenya match in the last WC. His captaincy also lost us the match and series in the recent zimbabwe tour when he decided to replace Shahadat rite after he got his hattrick on the third match. Experience... u sure abt it?
In the same token, we could argue about many more players. If answering all these questios of yours are important, then every team in the world would see change every single tournament. But fortunately, that's not the case. Our Habibul Bashar isn't any better...he brings Rafiq after the 15th over.

If you're not serious about htis world cup, then too bad. We're serious not in the sense of having BD win so many matches, and what not. We are serious in having the team build some players for later. If you're not looking forward to it right from now, then this discussion shouldn't be of your interest. Any discussion re this issue after the WC '07 should be of your interest.
