Weekly Top 5
1. Jos Buttler - 222 - It took Buttler until Week 6 for him to the first player to win back-to-back Cricketer of the Week accolades; this year it took him two weeks fewer. Is really getting himself back into good form in the SA20.
2. James Vince - 188 - Had a very Buttler-lite style week this week. Where Jos got 46, 54 and 11, Vince got 45, 52 and 1. Continues to impress on the T20 circuit and needs to cash in before the long haul to the start of the Country Championship.
3. Simon Harmer - 156 - Look whose cropped up prematurely early.....no, not the words of my fertility consultant but instead an early showing for Simon Harmer courtesy of a four-fer against Durban in the SA20.
4. Chamari Athapaththu - 153 - One good game with the bat and one good game with the ball sees Athapaththu in the Top 5 for the fourth consecutive week. Making hay whilst the New Zealand sun shines.
5. Moeen Ali - 153 - Is having a much more fruitful time in franchise cricket than he is in international cricket. Is largely here thanks to a couple of impactful T20 innings in the SA 20.
Overall Top 5
1. Chamari Athapaththu - 629 - 4 weeks at the top of the table for Athapaththu. Nobody has done the first 5 weeks on the trot. Can the Sri Lanakan break records?
2. Babar Azam - 560 - Finished his international commitments with an underwhelming 13 before joining up with the IT20 and getting a trademark half century at 100+ SR. You feel he may cash in in this Tier 3 T20 tournament.
3. Jos Buttler - 495 - Has leapt into the Top 5 in just two weeks. Is averaging 82.5 points per T20 game in the SA 20 and there are at least 4 more of them in the tournament - with the possibility of another 7.
4. James Vince - 465 - Is yo-yo-ing his way up and down the table in the first month. Debuted in seventh, moved up to 3rd, dropped back to 7th and now is in fourth. His gap of 73 from the player below him is the second largest on the List.
5. Daryl Mitchell - 392 - Inactive this week but he manages to hold onto his Top 5 position by the skin of his teeth. His nearest active player before next week will be Aaron Hardie in 7th who is 19 points away from him.
Other Movers
Phil Salt was the most upwardly mobile player to not feature in either of our Top 5s this week. He scored 102 points but moved up four places to 13. Sam Curran also moved up this week and is now in 9th place.
