Mominul deserves a national call up.

anamul being more consistent over time means he's more likely to be more consistent than SS and that he's got a better chance of coming back to form than SS would. i can understand putting in an inform seasoned pro who has been consistent for years but why gamble with a young talent who's consistency has been mediocre just because they are in form and bowl pace? anamul is a better option even if out of form and if they want a back-up pacer there are other options. it's possible they'll take 3 pacers anyway.
definitely agree that mominul deserves a national call-up, this ton topped it off as well as that he did it with tamim the #1 opener in the country (and national team). if mominul is selected now just after this huge partnership with tamim there is a good chance they'll just build on it from here on out and they'll both be playing for the national team for many years to come so there are only positives there imo.
also what happens if anamul scores a ton in his next couple of innings? out of anyone anamul is the most likely to do that.
