ya, i miss Javed Omar too...too bad he is already out of the scene and also too bad bringing him out of nowhere will actually make things worse! unless he can somehow get to play in A team or against some excellent quality oppostition get in strong batting form, i do not mind recalling him back!

my thinking/assumption behind Tamim's recent failure: Tamim is simply not an opening batsmen! have Mehrab jr. and Kayes open. it will work out

point to support this argument: very rarely our opening partnership gets past 10 overs in all formats of the game, specially tests!

*my suggestion for Tests:

Kayes/Naeem Islam
Mehrab jr.
Junaed
Tamim
Shakib
Rahim
Rakibul Hasan
Ashraful
Mortaza
Enamul Haque jr./Shahadat(situation/form depending!)
Robin

for ODI(by no choice, i have to try Tamim/Islam combo)

Tamim
Naeem Islam
Junaed
Shakib
Rakib
Ashraful
Rahim
Mahmudullah
Mortaza
Nazmul hossain
Rubel Hossain

for T20 ???? i am not an T20 Expert, ask other BanglaCricket pundits

and yes! if Rasel is fit and on form, why not try him too, including tests, ODI's and T20s
