My team against Pakistan, Asia Cup
1. Javed Omar
2. Mohammed Ashraful
3. Manjural Islam Rana
4. Habibul Bashar
5. Alok Kapali
6. Khaled Mashud
7. Faisal Hussain
8. Mushfiq Rahman
9. Mohammed Rafique
10. Tapash Baisya
11. Abdur Razzak
I hear Javed would play in the final match after recovering from injury. Rajin is low on confidence and completely out of sort at the moment. So he would be the 12th man ( for his fielding capability). At no.3 we need someone who can hold the top order batting together. Rana is the best possible selection there for the moment, if not Pilot. Pilot and Bashar have similar sort of averages/experience , so it would not hurt, i guess, if Masud bats at no.3. Tareq is of no use as well, not able to cut it. Too expensive to command a place. And i would not comment on Khaled Mahmood.
