We are right in the middle of a very low scoring period of the year. After 580 last week, 441 were scored this week; the lowest scoring fortnight of the year....some going considering that one week just 55 was scored.
Weekly Round Up
Moeen Ali is a bit of a poster boy for The Hundred but did not set the tournament alight this year. There were a few sparks of decent performances but nothing sustained. He scored 34 this week and moved up a place on the Overall List into 12th.
Sam Curran was the man of the series in The Hundred and improved his total score by 1196 points across the tournament. He scored just the 55 points in the final but lifted the trophy.
James Vince was the second biggest point scorer on our List in The Hundred with 833 points across the tournament and he finished it with two decent scores. 43 runs in the qualifier and 24 in the final. Not enough for the trophy but enough for second this week.
Chamari Athapaththu finishes first for the week again. Her 245 this week sees her top of the pops for the 6th week of 2024, two clear of anyone else. Only Harmer (on 3 occasions) and Labuschagne have finished as the weekly highest score more times in a calendar year.
Overall Top 5
1. James Vince - 3528 - A second week in top spot for Vince....however that is the end of his foray in the short form. He has not done so well in red ball cricket so might be in jeopardy unless he fixes up.
2. Chamari Athapaththu - 3469 - A characteristic burst up the table sees her move towards top spot and away from third; there is an enormous 760 points between her and third at the moment.
3. Sam Curran - 2709 - Started The Hundred in 12th and finishes it in third. A decent contribution...but no regular cricket on the horizon.
4. Babar Azam - 2647 - Is ending his 9 week sabbatical next week. He was 1st last time he played cricket since then he has spent 2 weeks in 2nd, 3 weeks in 3rd and now spends a second week in 4th.
5. Travis Head - 2586 - Inactive for a third week but facing absolutely no pressure from anyone below him. The closest inactive player to him this week was 619 points away.
Top Three Averages
1. Chamari Athapaththu - 182.58 (Up from 179.11)
2. Babar Azam - 155.71
3. Marnus Labuschagne - 132.44
Athapaththu's yo-yos back up again and stretches her lead on Azam. Curran's average dips the most, down by 3.24 points to 123.14.
