Jos Buttler - The Best Cricketer of the Week

 

Overall Top 5

1. Jos Buttler - 312 - In the best form he has been in all year....or he was anyway until his hamstring went snap and sees him (potentially) out for longer than the rest break that loomed after the final ODI against Sri Lanka.

2. Travis Head - 224 - Started the week three weeks into a spell as the worst cricketer on the List. A century against Zimbabwe and a decent 36 against South Africa sees him overtake Phil Salt and Sophie Ecclestone into 20th.

3. Harry Brook - 191 - Continuing his white ball spell par excellence - of his last 7 weeks he has scored over 100 in all but two occasions.

4. Marco Jansen - 185 - A very impressive score for a man who has played just one ODI all week....rendered even more impressive by the fact it was his first ODI of the year. Up to 11th place.

5. Saim Ayub - 132- Aside from long long spells of absence and disastrous Test recalls, Ayub has had some decent little patches of cricket across the year; this week's foray in CPL being indicative of such.

Overall Top 5

1.Vaibhav Sooryavanshi - 3840 - Inactive. Unknown return date. Could he be overtaken in the final stages of the year. Cruel but likely.

2.Jos Buttler - 3770 - Has narrowed the lead to first to just 70 but Lady Fate has intervened and he now will miss at least the final ODI and a chance to take first spot.

3.Simon Harmer- 3637 - Has returned to Essex to try and aid them out of the fire. The game is still active so he loses a place and is down to third.

4. Harry Brook - 3439 - Will definitely finish within the Top 4 this year courtesy of the 707 point gap below him now.

5.Sam Curran - 2732 - Yet again we say that Sam Curran is a very very lucky boy to still be fifth. Quinton De Kock's poor return to ODI cricket keeps Curran in place by only 14 points.

Saim Ayub & Ravindra Jadeja - The Best Cricketers of the Week

 

For the first time in the 8 year history of this, we have a tie in first place.

Weekly Top 5

=1. Ravindra Jadeja - 213 - His return to Test cricket has seen him improve his overall position by two places every week for the last three weeks. Earns his 15th Cricketer of the Week; fourth on the All-Time List with Buttler's 18 his next target.

=1. Saim Ayub = 213 - Grabs his joint top spot berth thanks to a massive century against St Kitts and Nevis overnight. This is his fourth Cricketer of the Week this year, only Sooriyavanshi has more.

3. Harry Brook = 121 - Grabs third spot for his 91 against Pakistan in the first Test.

4. Simon Harmer = 118 - Back to the County Championship and back in the points. 28 runs with 2 wickets and low economies sees him in fourth for the week.

5. Nicholas Pooran - 103 - Continues his phoenix like redemption in the second half of the year, largely solely down to his 43 runs against Antigua and Barbuda. Up a place to 11th overall.

Overall Top 5

1. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi - 3546 - Back in action this week but only 8 runs off the bat in the Duleep Trophy - enigmatically picks up a further 70 points with his bowling.

2. Jos Buttler - 3258 - Inactive this week but just about manages to hold on to second place. Will not be as lucky next week.

3. Simon Harmer - 3225 - Finished fourth for the week and narrows the gap on second spot to 33 points. Has a huge gap of 448 points from fourth.

4. Harry Brook - 2777 - Half way through his summer and has moved up a place to fourth.

5. Sam Curran - 2732 - Inactive this week and only in the Top 5 thanks to a rather subdued performance from Gill in 6th.

Highest Weekly Average

1. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi = 168.86 (Down from 172.9)
2. Simon Harmer = 140.22 (Down from 141.23)
3. Harry Brook = 13224 (Down from 132.8)

Jadeja's high-scoring week moves him up 6.44 points to 129.29. Bracewell scores just one point and unsurprisingly drops the most - down 6.44 to 91.2
