I might get chewed out for this but what about bringing Tamim down later in the order? He can be the later order power hitter we need during batting powerplays.

Tamim is capable of playing strokes from the first ball onwards so being an opener is not crucial for him. Plus we seem to have the mentality that once Tamim is out, its all over so maybe having him available later will change the dynamics of the team approach.

This is not an experiment for the World cup but next time we have matches where we can afford some experimentation, I think its worth a shot.

We can try to see if someone like Alok or Shabbir (or even Mithun as opener/WK) can take his role in the opening. I think SN is a good fit at #4 so no need to put him to face the new ball as its swinging.
