Shubman Gill - The Best Cricketer of the Week

 



Weekly Update


1. Shubman Gill - 464 - Not only won this week but got the 8th highest score in the 5-year history of the game. He really is in top top form.

2. Shakib Al Hasan - 349 - Shakib bemoaned the running of the BPL at the start of the tournament but is certainly enjoying it now. Two scores of 80+ in his two games this week all with stonking Strike Rates see him doing the business once more.

3. Marco Jansen - 309 - Taking the SA20 by storm. I expected a majority of his points to be scored in Long Form cricket this year but he will certainly be turning heads with his performances here. His 27 ball 66 will be one of the knocks of the tournament.

4. Rashid Khan - 125 - Bit of a slow start to 2023 - despite the fact that he has already turned out for 2 teams in 2 different tournaments in 2 different continents but 3 OK-ish performances in SA20 sees him in the Top 5 for the first time since 2020.

5. Sam Curran - 83 - Not quite grabbed the Sa20 by the scruff of the neck but 3 wickets in two games has seen him just about pip Jos Buttler into the Top 5 for the week.

Overall

1. Shubman Gill - 743 - Always a lot of movement at this stage but Gill has jumped from 4th to 1st AND put a 199 point gap between him and second place. Such a strong January for the wunderkind.

2. Shakib Al Hasan - 544 - Up 5 places this week thanks to some extraordinary knocks for Barishal. This tournament goes on forever so he could really put a healthy lead on the rest of the pack if his franchise goes all the way.

3. Devon Conway - 415 - Pros and Cons for Conway. Only 10 points this week but, such was his excellent form in the first fortnight of the tournament, he only drops down to third.

4. Marco Jansen - 390 - One amazing performance and two other good ones sees Jansen jump up from 10th spot to 4th this week.

5. Suryakumar Yadav - 355 - Has not yet had the impact in his embryonic One Day career as we have seen in the shortest format, however holds onto his top 5 place. He has a 28 point lead on Usman Khawaja.

Ones To Watch

Right at the foot of the table there is two points between a pair of players who really and truly have no business in franchise cricket. It is a tussle between Harmer and Warner as to who can be the less bad over the next 7 days.

Top 3 Averages

1. Shakib Al Hasan - 272
2. Shubman Gill - 257.67 (Up from 128.5)
3. Usman Khawaja - 243.5

Obviously, Gill's 119.17 improvement is the biggest upward swing - Devon Conway's negative of 64.17 is the largest decrease.
