None of these guys really featured for ODI's but were or are regulars for Tests. I feel we could do the same with Tests.

Our selectors could have a problem with this, however, due to the lack of quality batting. SL could rely on Sanga, Jaya, and Dilshan to get big scores and Boucher could rely on the likes of Kallis and Smith. We, on the other hand, do not have the batsmen of that caliber so that's maybe why they play with the best batsmen rather than going in with 6 batsmen and a specialist keeper. I feel, however, for the time being Dhiman should be in for Tests.
If Dhiman is very good with the gloves, I think we can sacrifice one batsman as we normally play with 8 batsman and 4 bowlers.I think in tests we can try like this:
1. Tamim
2. Jahirul/Imrul
3. Anamul
4. Mushy
5.Naeem
6. Shakib
7. Riyad
8. Dhiman+
9. Shohag
10.Pacer
11. Pacer
In home ground to me 2 pacers+Shakib+Shohag+2 part timer will not be a bad bowling option as well.
