interesting yup. after a long time we are not facing injury problem or staff like that. but the problem is, we are doing worse with the full strength than what we did before. hope the new come backs can change the scenerio.
what was the overall performance of mashrafee in ccl? does that make him eligible for a recall to national team? i'd not say so. he still needs to do some work on himself before getting a position in national team. mind it, he's just back for such a long injury.
so, keep him aside, what does we have as the best 11? out of the 20 other players who has been called to the camp, i'd make the final eleven for odi this way:
01. javed omar: nothing much after asia cup, but still no replacement for him.
02. mohammad rafique: after so many failed experiment, he seems to be able to open with better results. lets try him out for few more matches, unless it effects his bowling.
03. habibul bashar: cap'n, gotta be there.
04. rajin saleh: slow scorer, true, but still we need him to stop the diarrhoea.
05. mohammad asharaful: he is still the best in the team.
06. aftab ahmed: shines more wiht ball than bat, but need to give him more chance with batting.
07. nafis iqbal: this seems like a better position for this kid as he can't keep his head cool.
08. khaled masud: no replacement yet.
09. rajjak raj/majarul rana: both has their plus/minus. does not make much difference who plays.
10. taposh baiysha: has not been much effective, but until mashrafee/talha can prove that they are back from injury completely, he is still necessary.
11. nazmul hossain: he did quite good so far. gotta keep him.
