Gone early this week as I'm laid up with flu so thought that I might as well get ahead of it before my immune system collapses.
Weekly Top 5....but also kind of Top 7
1. Sam Curran - 221 - Rather enjoying the ILT20 and is tucking into the bowlers. Known more as a bowling all-rounder than the adverse, he has scored more points with the bat than he has with the ball in this competition. This is his 6th all time Cricketer of the Week.
2. Kane Williamson - 171 - Liberated from semi-retirement from the New Zealand set-up, Williamson is reinventing himself as T20 gun for hire.....and this week he has hit the target with scores of 56 & 45 in the SA20.
3. Adam Zampa - 150 - Without pausing for breath has gone from the BBL to the ILT20 and has bagged a pleasingly increasing amount of wickets. Starting off with 0 wickets in Game 1 vs the Desert Vipers, he then got 1, then 2 and finished the week with a threefer against the Abu Dhabi Knight Riders
=4. Jos Buttler - 139 - Pleasing consistency from Buttler as those around him do not do as well. This is his second three figure score in succession. Moves up to 11th in the Overall list.
=4. Chamari Athapaththu - 139 - No fireworks for the Sri Lankan this week but could have achieved more if not for the wash out at Wellington that took 40 wicket points away from her.
=4. Heinrich Klaasen - 139 - Snapped out of a poor run of form with 66 against MI Cape Town. Moves up to 12th in the Overall List.
5. Wanindu Hasaranga - 130 - Solid performances from Hasaranga this week sees him round off the Top 5. Keeping his eye in with economy points; he has the second best Economy in the ILT20 and the most Economy points of any of the bowlers on the List.
Overall Top 5
1. Chamari Athapaththu - 759 - Finished in the Top 5 of the week again and completes 4 straight weeks at the top of the List.....her lead is now just 80 though.
2. Sam Curran - 679 - Curran lost 2nd place last week, skipping third place and dropping to fourth. This week he reclaims it with a weekly high score, skips third place and narrows the gap to first.
3. Wanindu Hasaranga - 596 - Yet again does just enough to hold third place for the entire month of January. The 108 point gap between him and fourth place is now the largest gap on the List.
4. Ravindra Jadeja - 488 - Inactive this week. Down two places but still holds a Top 5 berth.
5. Nicholas Pooran - 445 - Dropped out of the Overall Top 5 last week but returns, largely courtesy of a rather impressive 70 points from fielding last week.
Ones To Watch
international Team Mates Harry Brook and Jamie Smith are both tied up on 58 points so far.....who will get the most out of the remaining T20 games?
Top 3 Averages
1. Ravindra Jadeja - 244
2. Sam Curran - 226.33 (Down from 229)
3. Chamari Athapaththu - 189.75 (Down from 206.67)
After remembering that he is rather a good cricketer this week, Liam Livingstone's average improves the most up 33 points. Nicholas Pooran's drops the most; -34.67 at 148.33.
