Shamsur and Anamul still have a long ways to go before proving themselves on the international level. Actually Anamul especially was clueless in Tests. Shamsur struggled in the A team match.

Tamim might be out of form now but he's still our best top order batsman to date and also the most experienced. He's still got an average of a 37 in Tests which is pretty good for our standards. Just because he's struggled so far this year doesn't mean he's finished. He can still be back.

Remember we're not Australia, India or England, we're Bangladesh. We can't just chuck talents out the window and replace them with unproven young batsmen.
