selection 101 : select according to role/need.

The new coach/captain need to decide what type of team they want (how many pacers, spinners, batsmen etc.) and then pick the team.

We always get caught up with picking individuals and then deciding on a spot for them.

I don't want to see anymore 'backup plan players'. There should be a plan to set the 50 overs amongst 5 bowlers and have 1 (at most 2) additional players in mind who can turn their arm if needed.

Same with Batting line up. If you don't have faith in the top 6/7 to put on runs, batting down to 8 or 9 at the expense of a capable bowler makes no sense.

I would go with:

Tamim
Imrul (Nafees as next choice)
Ashraful (Nafees as next choice)
Shakib
Mushfiq
Kapali (Hom as next choice)
Nasir (Naeem as next choice)
Nazmul (Naeem as next choice if we want only 2 pacers, but Naeem's role should be as a full time bowler)
Razzak (Shuvo as next choice)
Shafiul
Rubel
