How many lives Sharma got is irrelevant. We are discussing the end result.

This ranking is subjective. So is your perception about my fairness

If Shakib comes one down and faces a testing opening spell and scores 25 runs, how can it be equivalent to a wicket he earns at the end of an innings where the batsmen are trying to slog against him?

More often than not, Rohit was clinical and authoritative in achieving win for his team. When he did it, he completed the job and did not leave his team stranded in the middle with a half done job accompanied with what ifs. Additionally, he singlehandedly did it many times in the WC and in the process also pulverized opponents both psychologically and physically. Shakib could not do it often, be it with ball or bat. He did it only once against WI. Against NZ, IND, and PAK, Shak had good performances but none of them was good enough to induce substantial damage to opponent, let alone making BD win.

Rohit > Shakib
