Mehidy Hasan Miraz - The Best Cricketer of the Week

 

Weekly Top 5

1. Mehidy Hasan Miraz - 275 - A historic week for his side and Cricketer of the Week to boot. MHM was instrumental in his side's humbling of Australia. Moves up to 7th place overall - his highest point at any point this year.

2. Ravindra Jadeja - 182 - Continuing his recovering from hitting bottom place in the List with a second week in the Top 5. His 4 wickets against Sri Lanka moves him to 17th.

3. Paul Walter - 162 - Continued his amazing late tournament spell of form in The Hundred with 102 runs in the last two games. Instrumental to Manchester's victory in the tournament.

4. Jos Buttler - 156 - Two decent performances in the last two games sess the stand-in Manchester captain in fourth place for the week.

5. Harry Brook - 89 - Big gap between the Top 4 and 5th this week but Brook's 89 points game in just one game against Manchester. 49 runs with 30 SR points and a catch.

Overall Top 5

1. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi - 3458 - Will be back in action this Sunday in his first Red Ball foray.....and who knows what to expect there.

2. Jos Buttler - 3258 - His Hundred heroics sees him back up to second after being deposed last week.

3. Simon Harrmer - 3107 - Back down to third after an inactive week.

4. Sam Curran - 2732 - Seemed to be on the cusp of a Test recall but is now out with injury. With a number of weeks out of the game we could see him lose his Top 5 berth.

5. Harry Brook - 2656 - Got 45 more points than Shubman Gill in 6th and extends his lead on him to 174.

Highest Weekly Average

1. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi = 172.9
2. Simon Harmer = 141.23
3. Harry Brook = 132.8 (Down from 135.11)

Mehidy Hasan Miraz - The Best Cricketer of the Week

 

Weekly Top 5

1. Mehidy Hasan Miraz - 237 - Wasn't hugely impactful in his side's landmark ODI series victory over Australia but chipped in with Economies and Strike Rates to get his third Cricketer of the Week....was helped by a domestic outing at the start of the week too. Up an unbelievable 5 places and into the Overall Top 10.

2. Shubman Gill - 166 - A century in only his second red ball game of the year sees captain Gill take silver medal this week.

3. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi - 108 - Barely time to breathe after the IPL and is now in national colours for India A. One limp innings, but then a SR of 200 for a near-half century against Afghanistan A sees Vaibhav continue his strong form in One Day-ers after the Under 19 World Cup.

4. Nat Sciver-Brunt - 100 - Very poor return to the international stage with a weak score against Australia but dispelled that with a big score against India. Hitting her straps just in time.

5. Harry Brook - 96 - Lots of decent performances for England against New Zealand whilst Brook was.....kind of just about all right. 5th place though in a low scoring week.

Overall Top 5

1. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi - 2792 - The kid just won't take a break. His lead is now 786 and he continues to be the only player to have topped our Overall List all year.

2. Jos Buttler - 2006 - Inactive this week but that 200 + buffer has proved useful.

3. Simon Harmer - 1770 - A poor end to the first block of the T20 Blast for Harmer with a mee 26 points from two games. Holds third for a third week though.

4. Shubman Gill - 1728 - Makes his bow in the Top 5 for 2026. Completely skips the indignity of fifth place and jumps into 4th.

5. Aiden Markram - 1690 - His World Cup momentum slowed over the IPL and now inactive; he holds onto his Top 5 place by just 99 points.

Ones To Watch

Just 2 points between a resurgent Mehidy Hasan Miraz and Pathum Nissanka as they both have white ball commitments over the next week.

Highest Weekly Average

1. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi = 186.13 (Down from 192.07)
2. Nat Sciver-Brunt = 153 (Down from 163.6)
3. Quinton De Kock - 133.65.

MHM moves up by 10.29 points to see his average over the notional 100 points an active week mark for a good player. NSB drops the most but still holds second overall.

Pathum Nissanka - The Best Cricketer of the Week

 

A full compliment of T20 World Cup players this week with nobody featuring outside of that competition.

Weekly Top 5

1. Pathum Nissanka - 282 - Was looking worryingly out of nick up to this point of the year but burst into life with a century and a half century against Australia and Zimbabwe. When he is at his best, there are few better.

2. Aiden Markram - 214 - Continuing his fine spell of form with 114 runs scored over two T20 games....impressively he did better against the Test nation than he did the Associate.

3. Sam Curran - 213 - Not doing anything phenomenal (few English players are) but he is doing just enough with both bat and ball to feature in the weekly Top 5 for the second week in a row.

4. Travis Head - 168 - Something of a case of too little too late for the stand-in Aussie captain as he saved two decent performances for when his team were already on the brink. 27 points in the first two weeks and 168 in the last says it all.

5. Rachin Ravindra- 142 - Nothing like a knock against an Associate side to build confidence. RR is having a torrid time this year but bagged his first half century against Canada to see him pip into the Top 5 for the week.

Overall Top 5

1. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi - 1302 - Despite the points spraying around in the T20 World Cup, for Vaibhav to still have a 200+ lead is really something special.

2. Quinton De Kock - 1085- A comparatively quiet week for QDK. He is now looking over his shoulder rather than into the distance as he has a lead of just 28 off third.

3. Sam Curran - 1057 - Despite being one of the highest point scorers this week, Curran is unable to move out of bronze medal position. Still games to play for him though.

4. Aiden Markram - 1041 - Despite his big points haul this week, he does not manage to move out of fourth spot. There is a huge gulf between himself and fifth, the largest anywhere on the List.

5. Harry Brook - 764 - A disappointing week does not see Brook lose his fifth placed position. 42 points sperate him from Saim Ayub in 6th.
