He attacks the stumps & is a genuine wicket-taker for the Dutch. De Leede is excellent against the spinners and will be the best captaincy choice if Bangladesh bats first. 

Logan van Beek (NED)

ENG vs SA, Match 20: High Risk, High Reward Choice

Mushfiqur Rahim (BAN)

Mushfiqur Rahim will bat in the middle order for Bangladesh. He is a veteran in the ODI format and has been in good form.
