I can confidently say that he won't go anywhere.
And LMAO some people who claimed to have seen him bowl were saying he is faster than Shafiul and at around Rubel's pace. It turns out he bowls at the same pace as Shahadat. I would take players like Shuvashish and Rasel who can consistently hold down a line and length than Robiul any day.

it was me who said he can bowl more than shafiul pace.
now remember shafiuls debut in ODI's in tri series. was he bowling with pace that time ??? no he just looked another alamgir kabir to everybody. not too much pace and wayward. but selectors continued to give him chance and in the test matches agaisnt india we saw shafiul bowl with pace and some consistency. so shafiul had low pace in his debut and slowly he started to gain pace.
the few games i saw Rabiul i did not have speed metres. i just guessed as he looked pacey. today he started in 70-75 and later bowled 80-85 some times. may be its the debut nervousness. may be tomorrow or second innings or another test we may see him bowl 85+ which is close to rubel pace.
anyway lets see what robiul can do in future.
