nur is basically a bowler who can bat a bit, his inclusion as the #7 depends on how strong you want the batting/bowling, he strengthens the bowling more than the others but weakens the batting a bit. sabbir and shuvagata both strengthen the batting and weaken the bowling.

from what i've seen of shuvagata he has the shots to hit, he has the ability to hit from the start and he has the ability to score a lot of runs and hang in there if needed (he started his FC career terrificly with some long innings and he's shown he can keep a high strike rate in shorter formats when he's played.

i think shuvagata and sabbir might be pretty similar on the batting front.....who is the better bowler might be the deciding factor on who should be picked here....
