Quinton De Kock - The Best Cricketer of the Week




Another lean week for our 21 players with only 5 featuring and sharing 550 points between them. Needs to be a Top 3 for this week.


Weekly

1. Quinton De Kock - 141 - The Southern Brave player has put a torrid spell with the bat behind him and registered two decent scores in the last week. He had arrested his decline, won Cricketer of the Week and moved up 4 places to 6th.

2. Matt Critchley - 124 - Was not in the Welsh Fire's XI at the start of the tournament but has caught the eye with some big hitting cameos towards the end of innings. Picked up over half his points this week for his Strike Rate. Overtakes Pat Cummins into 12th.

3. Moeen Ali - 123 - Moeen is absolutely grinding our decent weekly performances. He has not had an inactive week for the last 3 months and has 8 100+ weekly point scores in that time. Dominating the T20 scene.

Weekly

1. Simon Harmer - 4235 - Same story. Inactive again but still with a 4 figure lead on second.

2. Moeen Ali - 3092 - Moeen's ever-present nature throughout the English summer gets its reward as he moves up to 2nd. He was last this high at the end of March, how far can he push before the end of The Hundred?

3. Rishabh Pant - 3056 - Inactive this week but will be in action over the coming weeks. Is 31 points off 2nd place as he moves down a place this week.

4. Mohammad Rizwan - 3025 - Was rested for the final Netherlands game and moved down a spot. He will be back in action for Pakistan in the Asia Cup next week and is only 31 points off third.

5. Babr Azam - 2699 - 111 points from the week courtesy of a half century in the final ODI vs Netherlands. Has a 149-point gap between himself and De Kock in 6th.

Ones to Watch

The whole of the Top Ten is pretty tasty but places 6 to 9 have just 71 points between them and are all active this week. Messrs De Kock, Bairstow, Root and Maxwell could be anywhere this time next week depending on how they go.

Top Three Averages

1. Simon Harmer = 211.75
2. Babar Azam = 158.77 (Down from 161.75)
3. Ben Stokes = 145.31

Only very small movements this week. De Kock improves his average by 1.62 points to 102 per week whilst Azam sees his average fall by 2.98.
