Ravindra Jadeja - The Best Cricketer of the Week

 



Weekly Top 5


1. Ravindra Jadeja - 217 - Jadeja snaffled a double tonne of points without really breaking sweat in India's comprehensive First Test victory over West Indies to end his month long inactive spell.

2. Devon Conway - 154 - Conway more than made up for his 0 point game against Washington with 77 from 55 and three contributions with the gloves in the game against New York.

3. Marco Jansen - 122 - is back scoring points again after a break of 2 months....but this score represents his total from 3 games of MLC cricket so is on the more disappointing end of the spectrum.

4. Rashid Khan- 79 - I can comfortably say that few players in the history of cricket have played a match in Sylhet and a match in Dallas in the same week but that just typifies modern cricket and Rashid Khan's life. Expect more pyrotechnics in coming weeks of the MLC from Rashid

5. Shakib Al Hasan - 78 - A much more meagre return from Shakib this week but still just tips into the Top 5. Is about to join up with the Montreal Tigers in the Global T20 Canada League...you would suspect he will do some real damage there.

Weekly Update

1. Shubman Gill - 3037 - The 36 points he scored in the First Test against the West Indies were disapointing but allows him to hold onto first place. His lead is just 30 now.

2. Shakib Al Hasan - 3007 - It took Shakib just two weeks from his return to cricket to surge from 6th place back up to 2nd. With the....perhaps....slightly less rigorous standard of the Global T20 Canada competition, he may well be back up to top next week.

3. Jos Buttler - Inactive this week and down a spot to third. The Hundred is next for him. 

4. Simon Harmer - 2950 - Could not polish off Kent soon enough to be included in this week's update so remains in fourth with the 71 points he got in his two outings on T20 Blast Finals Day.

5. Sam Curran - 2870 - Only 25 points in a disappointing T20 Finals Day for Surrey and their captain. Has Rashid Khan breathing down his neck.

Ones to Watch

The Top 5 is in a massive state of flux at the moment. There are only 247 points between 1st and 7th and everyone in that mix will play over the next week with the exception of Buttler and Curran.

Top 3 Averages

1. Shakib Al Hasan - 176.88 (Down from 183.06)
2. Ravindra Jadeja - 164.12 (Up from 160.81)
3. Pat Cummins - 161.43

Shubman Gill's average takes the biggest tumble - down 6.88 to 159.84 - and he moves out of the overall Top 3. Jadeja's average improves the most - up 3.31 points to 164.12 - and he replaces Gill in second place.
