A lot of shifts and changes all over the shop this week. Let's get into it.
Weekly Top 5
1. Simon Harmer - 341 - 2 Cricketers of the Week back to back for Harmer. Interestingly his score this week is his highest of 2024 but not even in his top ten highest scores of all time.
2. James Vince - 159 - Not quite back to his best but certainly back to his most-alright. 88 runs and another 3 catches in the second innings to make him the undisputed king of fielding points. 440 this year puts him 80 more than Phil Salt and 130 above the nearest non-wktkpr
3. Travis Head - 151 - That scorching 59 against England feels like it needs more than the mere 40 Strike Rate points it got but here we are with Head in third place for the week.
4. Babar Azam - 116 - Not really beating the allegations that he can only turn it on when the pressure is off, Azam got his best score in 15 weeks in some friendly knockabout with his mates in the Champions One Day Cup
5. Moeen Ali - 67 - Rather sneaks in to the Top 5 this week. 27 runs at an OK Strike Rate and a wicket against Gloucestershire in the T20 Blast sees him skid onto the Top Table on the week he announced his international retirement.
Overall Top 5
1. Chamari Athapaththu - 3753 - Completes a hat trick of weeks at Number One on our list despite another inactive week. Her lead is now very narrow.
2. James Vince - 3702 - Finished second for the week and burst towards top spot. A huge 715 separate him and third spot.
3. Sam Curran - 2987 - Still in third place despite a slightly ignominious showing in the first T20 against Australia. Plenty more white ball cricket in him yet.
4. Travis Head - 2877 - A second week in fourth for Travis Head who is looking in the very finest of touch.
5. Babar Azam - 2827 - Holds fifth place but will be looking over his shoulder at Simon Harmer who is bursting up the rankings. Only 189 points between him and the born again spinner.
Ones To Watch
Shubman Gill may wish to use the Duleep Trophy to reignite his ailing year. He is currently in 14th but could jump as much as four places with as few as 225 points.
Other Movers
Quite a few incidental scores have seen players move up Overall. Brook, Salt and Hardie all move up a place to 15th, 7th and 20th respectively despite barely scrapping over 50.
Top Three Averages
1. Chamari Athapaththu - 187.65
2. Babar Azam - 141.35 (Down from 142.68)
3. Marnus Labuschagne - 132.44
Harry Brook's poor week sees him down by 4.21 to 103.61 whilst Harmer takes a huge boost of 10.43 up to 114.7 a week.
