A bit was what was needed. A few overs a game. Compare Soumya's bowling numbers with Fazle's, whom he replaced. The fact Fazle failed with bat and ball (I didn't see him bowl, judging by your comments I guess he did) and was a nervous wreck (as per Mash) is another matter.
Can Shanto "bowl a bit?"
It was either Fazle or Naeem. There were hardly better options, and he wasn't a bad one. And it's good to see the selectors finally giving older players in form a chance. Don't see what's there to complain about. Don't get what Shanto has to do with that role or how he's in the picture.
Would you have felt better about Fazle's selection, his recent form and performances, and the two games with the NT had Bashar used better word selection to describe his ability to bat, field, and bowl a few overs?
