David Warner - The Best Cricketer of the Week

 



Weekly Top 5


1. David Warner - 387 - Two stellar performances sees David Warner get his first Cricketer of the Week since last Summer. With him very unlikely to carry on into 2024 this might be the last time we see him atop our List...unless he continues to pull off miracles in CWC23

2. Marco Jansen - 236 - Is really marking himself out as a top class all rounder. Performed with both bat and ball in his two World Cup games this week and will feel hard done by to have only finished second. He moves up a place to 10th on the Overall List though.

3. Babar Azam - 132 - One decent performance and one average performance always gets you third place. He will have another two games for his weekly total this week but has now held 9th place for 3 months.

4. Pat Cummins - 118 - back playing regularly and therefore back to being a regular Top 5 entry. He has managed to move up a place on the Overall List for the second successive week. 17th is his highest placing since the middle of April.

5. Jonny Bairstow - 70 - It has been a low scoring week this week with the average points per active player at just 80. Bairstow very much takes the 'Best of the Rest; accolade....much helped by the fact he has played two games. Won't play many more though.

Overall Top 5

1. Shakib Al Hasan - 4546 - Back in action this week but his lead of 76 last week has been slashed to just 33 this week. None of our Top 5 are in amazing form this World Cup but one good performance could turn it.

2. Jos Buttler - 4513 - Is not taking the World Cup by the scruff of the neck BUT is 33 points off top spot and averaging 53 points per game so......

3. Simon Harmer - 4432 - Missing. One blonde spinner. Last seen in Northampton 4 weeks ago. May be seen soon in South Africa. Keep your eyes peeled.

4. Shubman Gill - 4359 - Only registered 46 points this week but is under zero pressure from 5th place will be looking to move up soon though.

5. Ravindra Jadeja - 3906 - Another week in his most favoured position on 5th. Is lucky that Conway performed so badly this week. He has extended his lead on 6th place to 95 points.

Ones To Watch

The closest cricketers to each other is the resurgent David Warner in 11th who is 16 points ahead of the descending Moeen Ali.

Top 3 Averages

1. Simon Harmer - 184.67
2. Shakib Al Hasan - 156.76 (Down from 161.61)
3. Shubman Gill - 150.31 (Down from 154.64)

Another week where all but 3 players' averages deteriorated. Shakib's was the worst - however he keeps his top 3 berth. David Warner improves the most thanks to his mammoth week - up 10.91 to 103.33.
