I feel like BD's progress is significant and that Musfiq has been a bit hard done by.
He was at best a mediocre captain. And he has a habit of scapegoating - usually the junior members of the team. These are all pretty damning traits for any leadership position. He is a very unpopular captain based on fan support and the board has gradually lost confidence in him as well, first losing limited overs captaincy back in 2014.
That being said, few will question his work ethic which is unsurpassed and the seriousness with which he takes his game. As a leader his stubborness is a drawback, but at as a batsman it has made him one of Bangladesh's best as his Test averages attest.
All in all I remain an unapologetic supporter of his (even I have railed against his captaincy). But honestly, his leadership got us in a position from being write-offs to competitive. Faced with the bowling attack and the types of wickets we got, not many captains could have done much more than he did, in hindsight.
