I think the bowling attack of

Farhad
Sakib
Razzak
Shahadat
Mortaza
Sajid

...................will be a very powerful force to be reckoned with. I think sakib needs improving, he needs to maintain the right probing length and consistantly get turn when he needs it, also a doosra should be developed
You know stats over a period don't lie. Sajidul's performance in Mirzapore was not a fluke. Having had the advantage of watching him in the Sky Highlights [ the whole game, in fact ], I can see why he took so many wickets. Like Rasel he bowls with an upright seam. He does not have Rasel's variation though; particularly Rasel's magnificent scrambled seam delivery. But time is on his side.

Based on stats, I would also revisit Talha. He was picked far too early. Now he has matured. He is a tall bowler with good pace.

My top 5 will be: [ not necessary that they will play every match ]

Rasel
Murtaza
Shahadat
Sajidul
Talha

Nazmul , Tapash no longer come in the reckoning.

Spinners:

Razzak
Enam
Rafique [ maybe, for the SA series only ].

ODI's

Ash
Sakib.

Did you notice Ash dispensed with bowling his leggers ? He basically bowled floaters like Aftab. Such bowling can prove very costly sometimes !
