I like the Shakib, Mahmadullah, Naeem combo as that gives you so much to work with in both the bowling and the batting line up. To know that Ash can turn his arm when needed is good too. If Kapali can continue his ICL form and be consistent (has shown glimpses with ind century, WI etc.) the BD middle order could become a force to reckon with within the next few years.
I think Shakib is still experimenting with the captaincy and figuring out who his go to guys are. Its much better than the formulatic 10 over by pacers and one spinner till the end of first powerplay to 15, most likely bowl out one of the pacers and keep spin attack till the death where the other pacer returns regardless of how bad he is bowling.
I like Mahmadullah in all three formats actually.
