Harry Brook - The Best Cricketer of the Week

 


Weekly Top 5

1. Harry Brook - 329 - Would have got to the top spot without his little foray in The Hundred last night. His bumper score sees him move up 5 places to 11th spot. Should move into the Top ten over the coming weeks.

2. Saim Ayub - 203 - His serious injury in the first week of the year and the rehabilitation for it has really affected Ayub, however he contributed all across the board this week for his highest score of 2025.

3. Yashasvi Jaiswal - 150 - Up until this week was a bit of a disappointment in the Test series against England. Of our 7 players to have featured on either side only Bumrah scored fewer runs...for obvious reasons. Finished well though.

4. Sam Curran - 109 - Has carried on his strong form into a third competition of the Summer. This is now his 11th week scoring three figures or more. Last year this was the tournament where he scored the majority of his points so he could be odds on to continue that spell.

5. Ravindra Jadeja - 102 - Our most impressive player over the England/India series ends with a decent 102 which takes him to 1016 points for the series. It is, however, his quietest Test out of the five.

Overall Top 5

1. Sam Curran - 3228 - Marks a month at the top of the list...and it's starting to look a bit foreboding. He scored huge amounts of points in The Hundred last year and already has a lead of 329 points on second - there is no gap bigger on the whole of The List.

2. Liam Dawson - 2899 - Didn't formally feature in the final Test but managed 74 in his first game in the Hundred.

3. Ravindra Jadeja - 2804 - Has used the England/India series to firmly ensconce himself into that Top Three....however might have been hoping for higher. No immediate cricket on the horizon for him however.

4. Jos Buttler - 2632 - A score of 82 this week with just under half of that coming from his glovework....more to come you would think.

5. Nat Sciver-Brunt - 2500 - Inactive this week but will pick up her first points of The Hundred on Friday afternoon when Birmingham play Trent Bridge.

Other Movers

Annabel Sutherland returns to cricket after a huge 19 week gap. The last time she played she was 3rd....her 88 points in The Hundred sees her move up a spot to 19th.

Top 3 Averages

1. Sam Curran - 161.4 (Down from 164.42)
2. Chamari Athapaththu -143.6
3. Nat Sciver-Brunt – 142.69

Harry Brook's blockbuster score sees his average up by 15.11 points - he now averages 117.4 a week. Kane Williamson's change in fortunes sees him drop by 5.85 - down to 114.21.
