So there's been a lot of talk about Shaheen and Naseem getting rested for the Bangladesh T20Is. While Rauf is injured, do we need a senior pro in a series like Bangladesh where pace hardly matters and the onus would be on spin attacks and spin friendly surfaces? Do we really need Shaheen and Naseem to bend their backs on lifeless Bangladesh pitches in a series that hardly matters?

let's discuss and be open to all kinds of suggestions and opinions.

Its good its going to be spinning pitches so it going to be all about spinners pacers are not needed in bangladesh.
 
TBH, there is no need for Naseem or haris here... Naseem has mediocre performances and haris is injured otherwise he would have been there.

Squad looks ok.

Shaheen is also not in t20 plans atm so... I think it makes sense

teams often rest key players and avoid sending full-strength squads against lower-ranked sides, especially on surfaces like Bangladesh's where spin dominates and there's little value in making senior pacers like Shaheen and Naseem toil unnecessarily.
