How many senior players you see in the team? Three. The rest are all relatively new and young. Even Amir is still pretty young.

Our core/senior players did what they could do best (to their capability) and took us to #10 (or is it #12?).

Do you want to better than that? Then somehow we need to find new players beyond our current core players.

Its time to say thank you for your service and good bye to (most of) our core players and start giving opportunity to new players (like Zakir, Afif, etc) in T20 team and find out who will be part of our future and who is not.
What works for them doesn't mean it'll work for us

Our best players are our core group of Shakib, Ullah, Mushfiq and Tamim

Tamim is the only question mark there because there are replacements, but he should be given time to adapt his game

It's the fact that our younger players are too inconsistent

Das throws bat at everything, when he can score boundaries easily

Sarkar is all over the place

Sabbir for all his talent is an idiot

Mossadek can't bat in short format

Mehedi can't bowl in short format

Our domestic cricket is structured poorly, dead surfaces challenges no one and darters prevail

We need bouncy quick seaming pitches
