I prefer to drop Tamim until he gets his act together but that's not going to happen. I sort of understand what you're saying and for me this is Bangladesh's ideal line-up for ODIs:
01.Tamim (118 ODI matches)
02.Imrul (48 ODI matches)
03.Anamul (5 ODI matches)
04.Shakib (126 ODI matches)
05.Rahim (113 ODI matches)
06.Mahmudullah (85 ODI matches)
07.Nasir (19 ODI matches)
08.Gazi (5 ODI matches)
09.Mortaza (128 ODI matches))
10.Razzak (138 ODI matches)
11.Nazmul/Rubel/Shafiul/Abul (38,38,46 & 2 ODI matches)
This is the team but the middle order slot may change depending on the situation. Mominul Haque is promising but need to take time away and work on a few things so he can come back stronger. If we're playing on seaming tracks then 3 fast bowlers are needed in the line-up in place of a spinner.
This line-up above is not only very young still but also have lots of experience and that's what both Riyad and Rahim did today. These players can guide our Gazi, Anamul, Nasir etc.
