That didn't bring any results, we failed to reach second round and so even if we make him captain there is no guarantee he would be motivated enough to lift the side.

The problem we face is that of cultures as well. We have this junior and senior thing where it is difficult for somebody like Nasir to be made captain. When you look at the South African team, they had no issues giving the captaincy to a very young Graham Smith who has done a tremendous job over the years as captain. Not sure if we make that kind of decision with Nasir, Gazi, Mominul, Anamul etc...
But BCB is foolish,ain't? If they close a door, it is due to a misjudgment which can be rectified. And this team is better than the 2011 one. So why not Shakib?
