I guess there really isn't room to keep Anamul in the XI based purely on performance. But everyone should ideally get several chances before being discarded. How many chances did Imrul get? But I guess there was no competition back then.

My ideal lineup would be for the near term future:

Tamim
Jaharul
Ashraful
Anamul
Shakib
Mushfiq
Nasir
Mominul
Gazi
Taskin
Nazmul/Shafiul

Enam Jr, Rubel, Riyad, and Marshall will warm the bench.

This side bats all the way down to 9 without compromising on bowling strength. Nasir I feel is an underused bowler, and along with Ash and Momin, provide enough part timers. It is time to unleash Taskin because we simply don't have any other pacers. I would only play him in Tests and sparingly in ODIs if at all to keep him fresh. We don't play enough Tests to worry about overusing him and injuring him. We have BPL to get him injured.
