Arrow Select our Twenty20 Team

I am not sure, whether any thread is discussing the same topic or not. Mods can merge them if there is any.
Zimbabwe, who arrive in Dhaka on November 23 for an 18-day trip, will get ample chance to adapt to the conditions as they will meet the BD Team in a Twenty/20 match -- the first ever international of the shortest version of the game to be held in the country -- at Khulna on November 28. This shortest version of the game requires very specific type of batsmen, who can hit hard without getting out cheaply. There will be no room for the "Anchor Role" as we describe for some of our slow cricketers. So, let's select our best Team for this match:

My selection for this Team:

Shahriar Nafees (C)
Mohammad Ashraful
Aftab Ahmed
Saqib Al-Hasan
Mehrab Jr.
Farhad Reza
Mohammad Rafiq
Mashrafe Murtoza
Abdur Razzaq
Mushfiqur Rahim (WK)(VC)
Rajib/Rassel/Tapash
Rajin Saleh (12th man)

I included the blue names, which many will not agree with; with the point that let them play their natural strokes and get out by keeping a high run rate. It should not matter if Ash gets out by scoring 30+ with a SR of 125+.

How you guys are thinking about it? Put your comments please.
