Pretty surprised to see that they decided to shield Mominul and Anamul on the batting side but not shield Sohag and Abul on the bowling side? Of course the Sohag selection makes much more sense because he brings variation but Abul's selection is a surprising one.
Anyways now thinking about who will end up grabbing the spots. I think we'll either see Nazim at opener and SN at #3 or SN at opener and Junaid at #3. My gut feeling says that we'll end up going with the latter.
Another big question is who will play at #8? We saw that Nasir will most likely bat there but now with Sohag in there, will we end up seeing him instead at that spot? At the #8 spot, I would rather have Sohag since he can bat a bit and is the better bowler. If we want to use Nasir then either have him bat in the top 7 or don't play him at all. No point of wasting him at #8. I see Elias being a lock in the team.
As for the pacers, we'll most likely go with Shahadat and Rubel.
Congrats to whoever made it and best of luck to all of them. Hope they all perform well.
