I don't know why they benched Nannes. I would take him ahead of Sajid anyday, so what he had one good game. They waited until the most important match of the tournament to do experiment with their batting line up. They should have dropped Chanderpaul for Nannes, and use a local batsman instead.
Bowling changes weren't good. He used up Gazi way too early, and didn't give the ball to Nazmul early enough. But at the end I don't think it would have mattered much. They needed to score 160+ to win the game.
Shuvo cost sylhet another 10-15 runs at the end. He couldn't take any singles off of Taskin's over to give Chigumbura the strike back. The way Chigumbura was hitting in the last over, he probably could have picked up couple more boundaries in that over.
