James Vince - The Best Cricketer of the Week

 


Weekly Top 5

1. James Vince - 311 - Doing big things in the Abu Dhabi T10 tournament. Is the ninth highest scorer with 148 runs with an average strike rate of 187.34. Basically whenever he plays you're guaranteed at least 50 points. Is guaranteed at least one more game and might have a further 4.

2. Yashasvi Jaiswal - 201 - Got the feeling that his score of 161 was a defining innings in his burgeoning career. Despite that it is only worth silver medal this week. He does move up a place to 8th this week, over-taking his inactive Indian team mate Ravindra Jadeja.

3. Phil Salt - 196 - Registers his fourth three figure score in a row. Has got 892 points in the last month across his 20 over and 10 over commitments with England and Team Abu Dhabi. Started the year slowly but sure is finishing it strongly.

4. Virat Kohli - 155 - A century sees Kohli back in the Top 5 for the first time since July. Such has been his poor form that this is his highest score since May's Yearly Best 244.

5. Mitchell Marsh - 155 - It is telling how bad a 2024 Marsh has had when this is his third highest score of the year. 53 runs and 3 wickets in the loss to India was just enough to keep Jos Buttler in 6th place. He moves up a place on the Overall list to 19th.

Overall Top 5

1. Chamari Athapaththu - 4681 - Registering decent, if not spectacular numbers in the WBBL. Holds top spot for a seventh week. Only Azam's 20 weeks in first place have been longer.

2. James Vince - 4338 - Despite registering the 16th highest score of the year, Vince stays in second place and can only slash the gap on first to 343. More impressively the gap to third place stands at 652.

3. Travis Head - 3686 - Followed up his 6 week absence for cricket with a decent, if not rather underwhelming, 140. Lot of cricket in him yet this year though.

4. Phil Salt - 892 points in a month has seen him go from 13th to 4th. Quite the jump for a guy who took 5 months to break in the Top 10.

5. Sam Curran - Inactive this week and down a place to 5th; his lowest position for 15 weeks. Things could get even worse as he is just 121 points ahead of the next active player Marnus Labuschagne in 7th.

Other Movers

Despite Harry Brook's fairly anodyne 79 against a New Zealand Prime Minister's XI, he still manages to move up 2 places; overtaking the inactive Rachin Ravindra and Simon Harmer,

Top Three Averages

1. Chamari Athapaththu - 167.18 (Down from 168.44)
2. Jos Buttler -143.26 (Up from 142.83)
3. Ravindra Jadeja - 132.39.

James Vince average improves the most up by an impressive 5.44 to 1205, whilst Marnus' poor start to the BGT sees his average decrease to the tune of 3.53. He currently stands at 123.35 a week.
