That's a fair point. However, I would suggest having Mushy at #3, Shakib at #4, and then Nasir could bat at #5. Mushy and Shakib are also batsmen in form and at the same time are really experienced. So let them bat earlier and ahead of Nasir. Nasir at the same time would get pltenty of deliveries to get his eye in and make a big score.
