Shakib Al Hasan - The Best Cricketer of the Week

 



Despite the delayed nature of the update the cut off was still Friday evening - this basically means the India v Pakistan game rolls over until next.

Weekly Top 5

1. Shakib Al Hasan - 215 - Shakib managed to fit 3 World Cup games into this week and performed well in two of those to finish the week with the highest score. Only Harmer has more Cricketers of the Week awards.

2. Marco Jansen - 148 - 4 wickets split equally across 2 World Cup games plus a few bonus points from Strike rate and Fielding means he finishes in second place. Also moves into 11th place overall.

3. Ravindra Jadeja - 130 - One perfect World Cup game for Jadeja this week...followed by a more average one sees him finish in the bronze medal place. He moves up a place into 6th overall.

4. Devon Conway - 117 - Failed to live up to his stonking first outing in the World Cup but still putting in decent shifts.

5. Jos Buttler - 100 - A blistering 20 followed by three catches with the gloves. One of those very impactful T20 performances that doesn't really transfer to an impactful amount of points.

Overall

1. Shakib Al Hasan - 4525 - Back up to top spot after a fortnight away...however fans will be concerned after he was taken away for scans after the New Zealand game. That lead doesn't look comfortable.

2. Simon Harmer - 4432 - Uncertain if or when Harmer will start up in South African cricket but he is beginning to slide. Third is catching up with him but there is an eye-watering 745 points between him and 6th spot.

3. Jos Buttler - 4421 - Despite finishing in the weekly Top 5, Buttler moved DOWN this week. THis should not be for long, you would imagine.

4. Shubman Gill - 4184 - Struck down with illness for the first two World Cup games. No pressure from below and on his way back to fitness. Should retain fourth for a while and could move up with a return to form.

5. Devon Conway - 3761 - Holds on to his Top 4 spot for the second week but has Conway, Jadeja and Curran breathing down his neck. The gap between him and 4th spot is nearing half a thousand points.

Ones To Watch

A decent Jos Buttler could finish the week anywhere between 4th and first this week.

Top 3 Averages

1. Simon Harmer - 184.67
2. Shakib Al Hasan - 161.61 (Up from 159.26)
3. Shubman Gill - 154.96

David Warner improves his average again. Over the last week he has crawled from bottom spot to being on the verge of three figures per active week. Usman Khawaja's poor domestic form sees his average continue to descend.
