I still have him second

Bashar could have been up there, but he was put at 3 and his style suited the middle order not top, further he was a reflex player who played most of his career in his 30s, reflex players are in the peaks in their 20's

I certainly think if all things are considered tamim and shakib have to be the ones fighting it out for top spot, mushfiq has been a massive underachiever for most of his career, he should be averaging mid 40's with his talent
Mushy was averaging around 17-18 in first couple of years of his career and that is bringing his overall average down.
He is averaging around 45 from 2015-17 though.
