I've always said Shahriar Nafees is more effective at #4 than as an opener. He's showed before he's an excellent player of spin and he showed that today as well. It's no surprise that he averages 36 in Bangladesh. I think we should let Imrul have the opener spot as he's more effective there. He's also hit 7 50+ scores this year, 6 of which have come against a g8 team, so it would be unfair to drop him. He's done a great job for us this year and he plays to a plan, he just needs to speed it up a bit. He doesn't give his wicket away often like the aaa, and it's nice to see the score at 50/0, rather than 5/1. Between the two I'd much prefer SN at #4 than Imrul.
