Mashrafe Mortaza sidelined by side strain

Missing factor though is Rafique. Shakib has improved a lot since then, but he has had a dip in his bowling form last 2-3 years, plus has batting responsibilities.

Rafique was the teams main spinner, shouldering a lot of responsibility. Allowed guys like Shakib and Razzak to play a more attacking role. Like one commentator described him-wily old fox. Very consistent, good economy rate, could bowl in any situation. Neither Gazi or Arafat will be able to do this. Its a pity Mosharraf Rubel and Enamul Jnr didnt progress, as either one of them could have picked up from Rafique.
