Lots of cricket this week so quite a healthy weekly list from all over the globe.
Weekly
1. Mohammad Rizwan - 254 - Only at the start of this month, the naysayers were saying nay about Rizwan's position in this team.... he has since pulled off a series of blinders. His first two T20 innings against England have been exceptional.
2. Babar Azam - 239 - His three T20s this week have gone OK, phenomenal and crap in that order.... that T20 century sees him finish in second for the week.
3. Simon Harmer - 218 - Not often Harmer gets a five-fer and doesn't get Cricketer of the Week...in fact it's not often the Harmer plays and doesn't get Cricketer of the Week. Yet here we are.... just a third-place spot for his penultimate County Championship game of the season.
4. Moeen Ali - 152 - I'll say it before and I'll say it again. Give Moeen a run of T20 games and he will always end up in the Top 5. Will make hay during the T20 World Cup. His 25 ball 55 yesterday will largely be forgotten but was a thing of beauty.
5. KL Rahul - 115 - Seems like forever ago that Rahul was tearing up the points totals in the IPL. Has stuttered dramatically since then but pops up to say hello in this week's Top 5. '
Overall
1. Simon Harmer - 4521 - Harmers 21st week in top spot BUT despite being active this week and finishing in the Top 3 for most points his lead on second place decreased again. With only one more County Championship game left is a lead of 809 points likely to be enough?
2. Mohammad Rizwan - 3712 - Another great week for the Pakistan batter. His lead on 3rd place is now up to 423 points - only two gaps are bigger (809 between him and first place & 499 between Matt Critchley in 12th and David Warer in 13th)
3.Moeen Ali - Now has spent a month in third place and has outperformed fourth place in all four of those weeks. Despite this his 168 point lead still looks meagre.
4. Rishabh Pant - 3121 - A poor Asia Cup and then an invisible start to the India vs Australia series sees him hold onto 4th place....but needs to look over his shoulder.
5. Babar Azam - 3046 - Back to claim the 5th place position he lost three weeks ago. The difference is that this week he is closer to 4th than he is 6th. Could form an assault up the table.
Ones To Watch
Pat Cummins has drifted out of the Top 10 and down to 13th. Can he push his way back up? He is just 19 points behind David Warner to move into 13th.
Top Three Averages
1. Simon Harmer = 205.5 (Up from 204.91)
2. Ben Stokes = 151.33
3. Babar Azam = 145.05 (Up from 140.35)
Despite three weeks of a shrinking average, Babar has seen his average improve the most this week - up 4.7. Matt Critchley's feast or famine year has hit the famine stage and his average decreased by 6.86 to 128.47 per active week.
