amra korbo joy,
at the moment " Enamul is not far behind warne, mushtaque, murali.." ...?
where do u put Rafique then?
problem is you can alsways argue what would have happened.. no way to prove anything.. but one thing was proven that Rafique failed big time.. and he was a spinner.. so, cant say that confidently that Emnamul would have been handy..
may be given his young age, selectors did not want him to loose his confidence......
on a side note, "Rana can bat as good as Tushar'" is another classic statement you made..... By all probability he cannot.. he may score more runs.. number 8,9 sometimes scores more than 2,3..that does not mean they can bat better... Rana played at 6 or 7 in a weak abahani .. he is a useful player, for sure, has many qualities.. but there are some boundary conditions that u are someho missing..
if it is between chacha and rana..i want Rana to play just because he is young, and probably have a positive influence in the team because of his fighting spirit..
my personal choice is a weird one, since we have 6 batsman plus mashud and rafique..i will rather take a full bowler.. and to me that is Tapash... but he is so much out of reckoning that there is no chance in hell for him..
one of the reason we could defend a 200 plus against an admittedly weaker indian batting: There was no weak link in the bowling.. and being a batsman short (played with 5 specialist batsman.. it was subcontinent track) helped and we had mashrafi, tapash and nazmul.. plus chacha..
