A top four consisting of Tamim, Kayes, SN and Ash is a recipe for disaster... all of them lack temperament and prone to brain farts. We will most likely be 4 wkts down before 50 runs
Shakib is a class player, however he is not in form. In his last few outings he is mediocre at best. His failure in the middle is detrimental to BD win. I have more confidence in Nasir than Shakib in the middle; point in reference last ODI in Zim.

Top 4 = 50. This is T20, we are talking about. Shakib is no better than those top 4 if you are judging by the last match. This is not the time to look for Samuel, Gayle or Pollard in BD. This is to adjust team order according to player's form and confidence.
