Rachin Ravindra - The Best Cricketer of the Week

 



Extraordinary week of scoring ; just short of 3000 points on t he board with three cricketers getting their highest score of the year.


Weekly Top 5

1.Rachin Ravindra- 468 - The headline figure is that Rachin has scored the 7th highest score in the 8 year history of this List. He matched just under half his total of T20 points scored in the last 18 games this year in just 4 this week and moves up from 16th to 9th.

2. Sophie Ecclestone - 351 - Imagine what her numbers would be like if she got to play more than a single red ball game every year and a half. Comfortably broken her record point score of 2026 and up to 18th overall.

3. Nicholas Pooran - 338 - Increased his total T20 points scored to date by 34% this week with 208 runs in 3 games in Major League Cricket. Is one of only 4 players to score more than 700 points in the last month. Working his way into form or taking advantage of poor bowling?

4. Jos Buttler - 313 - Put his critics to one side briefly with a huge 131in the final T20 against England....then bolstered it with another 50 fielding points in the two ODIs.

5. Sam Curran - 216 - Really hitting the straps with his bowling again and getting those allrounder points. When he doesn't hit with the bat he makes up for it with ball - he bagged 160 points with that discipline this week.

Overall Top 5

1. Vaibhav Sooryavabshi - 3137 - Seems to have been folded into the white ball squad a bit now and hard to see where his next cricket is coming from, Lead of 387 on second.

2. Simon Harmer- 2750 - Only 87 points from 3 T20 Blast games for Harmer as his side failed to do what needed to be done to progress to Finals Day. Holds second.

3. Jos Buttler - 2513 - Is very well insulated in third still; 237 up to second, 326v down to third. Very aesthetically pleasing if nothing else.

4. Shubman Gill - 2277 - A sign of how high scoring this week has been is that Gill's score of 171 sees him finish 8th for the week. Holds fourth overall.

5. Harry Brook - 2147 - Real civil war going on between Brook and Curran for 5th. Brook scored 192 this week but Curran scored 216 meaning that the gap is now just 63.
