So everyone would absolutely rule out a return to Test matches for Habibul? I say if he comes back to domestic cricket and plays well, he can make the team. Just like everyone else.

Obviously he can't just walk back into the team, he needs to have form behind him. But if he plays domestic cricket, then that can only be good for BD cricket. The other domestic players learn from him, and he puts pressure on the national team batsmen to perform because if he plays well - he might be in contention for one of their spots.

Age is against him, but he could potentially have another year or so left in him. For Bangladesh, you can't overlook a guy that averages 30. The only guy that even comes close to that is Shakib.
