We can use Shahadat Hossain like Sri Lanka uses Dilhara Fernando-an impact bowler who will go for runs but also pick up wickets. But for such a role Shahadat is about 5-7 kph short. Currently he is bowling around 133-135 kph. This is gentle comfortable pace. If he can increase his pace to around 140 kph he ll be a little more difficult to play, also given his height.
But i think we are better off bowling Mashrafee and one of Nazmul/Rubel. Shafiul and Shahadat are both very inconsistent.
