Last week we saw a huge amount of points shared between a great many players; this time i=out we only had 6 active cricketers but all of them scored more than 100 points. Let's see who prevailed.
Weekly Top 3
1. Rishabh Pant - 323 - Despite his team not winning the final Eng v Ind Test and despite his innings not necessarily sticking in the mind anymore, Pant did score big and claims his first Cricketer of the Week award.
2. Jonny Bairstow - 290 - Bairstow finished second last week - and then goes on to score two centuries....and still finishes second this week. Thems the breaks huh? Moves up two places to 10th.
3. Joe Root - 283 - What a Summer it is turning out to be for Root....again. Rounds off the first section of the Red Ball Summer with another century and a third placed finish.
Overall Top 5
1. Simon Harmer - 3481 - Scored the fewest points of anyone this week but benefitted from the fact that last week's 2nd, 3rd and 4th placed Cricketers were inactive this week. Is now 900 points clear at the top of the List.
2. Mohammad Rizwan - 2581 - The first of two inactive weeks for Rizwan - but he manages to just about hold off a surge and keep his second place berth.
3. Rishabh Pant - 2449 - Pant moves up and down the Top 5 of this List like a hyperactive child at a birthday party. This is his highest position for 6 weeks.
4. Joe Root - 2270 - Root's year is the inverse of last year's. In 2021 he stayed in the Top 5 for the majority of the first half of the year and then began to drift down as the nights drew in. This year he is doing the opposite. This is his debut in the Top 5.
5. Marnus Labuschagne - 2221 - Inactive this week but is in action in SL v Aus...and doing rather well before next week.
Other Movers
Just to round off the week, the other 2 active players also moved up a spot this week. Ben Stokes moves up from 10th to 9th, whilst Moeen Ali's T20 Blast and Eng v Ind double headers sees him reclaim 7th.
Top Three Averages
1. Simon Harmer = 204.77 (Down from 208.69)
2. Joe Root = 162.14 (Up from 152.85)
3. Ben Stokes = 160.15 (Up from 156.42)
Only one of our 6 active players moved down in terms of average and that was Simon Harmer who still retains an average above 200 points a week. Rishabh Pant swelled his average the most - up 10.31 points to 116.62.
