However, This one T20 is not enough to write Aftab off. Putting in SN in the 1st test was a mistake, as was yanking him after only one match. Picking SN for 'spin playing' and then drop him at #3 after early wickets? Having Kayes sit out the T20 was a mistake and it will be a mistake to yank Aftab after this one match.

The team selection should really be thought out, not based on whom Sid has an *ahem* affection for.

1.Tamim : But as an inning builder, partner should be the aggressor
2. Kayes (Tri series gave some positive starts though Kayes was shaky. Give him the first ODI at least)
3. Aftab
4. Mahmadullah (can be a sensible batsman and accelerate when set)
5. Naeem (seems to partner will with Mahmadullah)
6. Shakib (Hopefully at 4 down he will be removed from the PP overs and can set himself before he gives it away in the batting PP a la match vs. India)
7. Ash (let him capitalize on the batting PP with a license to do what he wants. Hopefully Vettori's 10 will be done by the time he gets in)
8. Mushfiq
9. Razzak/Shahadat (based on the pitch)
10. Shafiul
11. Nazmul

I like your team
