Jasprit Bumrah - The Best Cricketer of the Week

 



After some lean weeks all bur 6 of our players featured this week with 1920 shared between them.


Weekly Top 5

1. Jasprit Bumrah -211- Surprising to say but Bumrah has been something of a disappointment this year. And I don't think we can just blame injury. 211 is his highest score of the year and it sees him rise to 22nd Overall.

2.Ravindra Jadeja - 205 - A complimentary performance with both bat and ball for Jadeja....he did not scare massively with both but when you put them together it is enough for him to get second.

3. Babar Azam - 196 - Finished in the Top 5 last week and now the Top Three this. Dare we dream of a resurgence. The 2020 winner of Cricketer of the Year moves up to 4th from bottom with this week's performance.

4. Wanindu Hasaranga - 185 - Last week's 189 was his best score of the year and he follows it up with only 4 fewer this week. Really is enjoying his time in Pakistan...even if he did lose his contract with Rajasthan this week.

5. Saim Ayub - 145 - Another deceptive week for Ayub. 145 is decent. Fifth place is decent....but this is from three games....for that it seems a little underbaked.

Overall update

Despite 3 of our Top 5 being in action this week, our Top 5 remains unchanged as:

1 Sam Curran 4266
2 Jos Buttler 3912
3 Nat Sciver-Brunt 3888
4 Liam Dawson 3797
5 Ravindra Jadeja 3530

264 points were split (incredibly unevenly) between 3rd, 4th and 5th ....but those gaps are still pretty notable.

Ones to Watch

Big question of the week is whether Ayub can use the Pakistan/Sri Lanka/Zimbabwe tri series to propel himself into the top 10. He is 4 points off 11th, 74 off 10th and 166 off 9th. All eminently possible.

Other Movers

Livingstone posts 141 this week in the Abu Dhabi T10 to see him move up a place to 19th.

Top 3 Averages

1. Sam Curran - 147.1
2.Chamari Athapaththu - 142.24 (Down from 147.81)
3. Annabel Sutherland - 143.13 (Down from 141)

Jasprit Bumrah is the biggest beneficiary this week - up to 92.6 - an improvement of 6.23. Athapaththu moves down the most but still has the second highest overall.
