Since the board already declared that he could be the next captain,, there is no doubt that he is going to be there for a long time... One thing about Mushfique is, he does seem to have the penchant to learn from his mistakes, he is young and can improve. All that is about his batting. WK skills is such that even in the domestic leagues, he is not the best perfomer.. let alone international scene. There arent any known statistics of his dropped catches or stumping.. but he does try his best despite his limitations.
I think Mithun does need to be closely observed, kept in loop and given the attention he deserves. He probably should get some advise from the national coach or Heera,so that he does get the motivation to improve his skills and start to think of himself as a potential replacement. However, if he can keep up the momentum as he has been since his U19, I think he could be in the team for ODIs soon to play side by side with Mushfique.
