And to be honest Bangladesh won't get better playing Franchise or grade cricket they need to play the best in order to mold themselves into a competitive unit.
They are not good enough where is the improvement? Some in ODI cricket, fine let them play that, but they are not ready for Test cricket, the ICC made a mistake and should admit it and move on.
