Quinton De Kock - The Best Cricketer of the Week

 

WeeklyTop 5

1. Quinton De Kock - 214 - Back to decent T20 performances over in America. 114 runs with 70 Strike Rate points across three games for MI New York sees him with his highest score since the end of January.

2. Harry Brook-159 - A deceptively good performance in terms of metrics for Brook. In fact, despite the historically poor series against New Zealand, only Harmer and Gill have scored more points than Brook since the start of the first Test.

3. Paul Walter- 151 - Tall Paul's yo-yo-ing form continues to do just that with a big score this week. Strap yourself in for a meagre one next week. This week he scored Essex's fastest ever half century in 18 balls.

4.Nat Sciver-Brunt- 145 - Captain Fantastic is back with a match-winning performance over South Africa to take England to the World Cup final. Captivating stuff.

5.Nicholas Pooran - 145 - Making hay in the New York sun with a second Top 5 finish in a week. Pulls himself up to 19th - a position he has been no higher than since the end of January.

Overall Top 5

1. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi - 3075 - Inactive for only the second time in the last thirteen weeks. His lead now a 'mere'764 points.

2. Simon Harmer - 2311 - Harmer never sets the world alight in Blast weeks and this was no different with 87 points in two games.

3.Shubman Gill - 2106 - Inactive this week and holds off fourth place by 80 points.

4. Jos Buttler - 2026 - A rare T20 Blast outing before a washed out England game sees Buttler back in action for the first time since the IPL. Holds fourth for the third week in a row.

5. Quinton De Kock - 1761 - A phenomenal bump up the table as QDK goes from 10th to reclaim a Top 5 spot he lost 6 weeks ago.

Highest Weekly Average

1. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi = 180,88
2. Nat Sciver-Brunt = 153.38 (Down from 154.57)
3. Simon Harmer = 135.95 (Down from 139)

QDK's renaissance week sees him up 6.34 points to 135.46 whilst Curran's solitary T20 matches sees him leak 6.64 to 112 a week.

Liam Livingstone - The Best Cricketer of the Week

 

Weekly Top 5

1. Liam Livingstone - 221 - The Lancashire man is ploughing the franchise furrow very well this winter, taking in his second franchise tournament of (I believe) four he will play before next Summer. This marks his first ever Cricketer of the Week.

2. Nat Sciver-Brunt - 212- Is proving the lynchpin to Hobart's very successful WBBL. Could have got even more if it were not for Friday's wash out against Adelaide.

3. Suryakumar Yadav - 163 - A decent score for SKY this week but he might have hoped for more seeming as he played three matches against quite mixed bowling attacks in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy.

4. Phil Salt - 149 - 256 runs across the competition has really helped Phil Salt's figures this year.....just as it did last time out. He moves into 6th place overall.

5. Pathum Nissanka - 142 - A disappointing score in the final of the T20 tri-series against Pakistan was soon dispelled with a match winning knock of 81 for the Gulf in his first game of the ILT20.

Overall Top 5

1. Sam Curran - 4303 - Not the most electric return to action for our top player as he bagged 37 points in his first game of the ILT20. He needs a performance soon as the gap is now less than 100 between him and second.

2. Nat Sciver-Brunt - 4219 - Zoning in on top spot but you feel like there might not be enough games for her left this year to claim that place in 26 days.

3. Ravindra Jadeja - 3926 - After spending 6 weeks in 5th, he has decided to skip 4th entirely and instead launch himself into the Top 3 courtesy of two OK performances against South Africa.

4. Jos Buttler- 3912 - Not much to report except inactive and down to 4th.

5. Liam Dawson - 3887 - A disappointing Abu Dhabi T10 has merged into a similarly insipid start to the ILT20 for Dawson......however he keeps on turning out. No player has featured more in 2025.

Other Movers

In one of those weird quirks, just 45 runs sees Athapaththu move up 3 places; over-taking the inactive Jamie Smith and Heinrich Klaasen and joining fellow Sri Lankan Hasaranga on 2462.

Top 3 Averages

1. Sam Curran - 143.43 (Down from 147.1)
2. Ravindra Jadeja = 140.3 (Down from 141.11)
3. Annabel Sutherland - 138.4 (Up from 138.38)

For the second week in a row Athapaththu leaks the most points. She has now shaved 12.61 off her average over the last two weeks and currently has 129.63 per week.Liam Livingstone is up the most - +5.53 to 91.92.

Jos Buttler - The Best Cricketer of the Week

 

Weekly Top 5

1. Jos Buttler - 227 - Excelled in two short England games this week; one short because of ineptitude and one because of the weather, however he showed impactful batting in both. This is his 6th Cricketer of the Week; two more than anyone else on the List.

2. Chamari Athapaththu - 203 - Has been challenging last year's maxim that she plays huge when she does play but doesn't play very much. This is only her 11th wicket of cricket but gets 203 courtesy of an incredible bowling performance against Trinbago

3. Liam Livingstone - 195 - Returned to the Lancashire side for a rare outing to rocket propel them into T20 Finals day with a match winning 85 against Kent.

4. Yashasvi Jaiswal - 138 - A return to cricket after the England Test series with a losing appearance for West Zone in the Duleep Trophy. Scored just 4 in the first innings but followed it up with a half century in the second dig.

5. Jamie Smith - 102 - Is going to be rested for the rest of the White Ball Summer but made the most of his final foray with a 62 against South Africa in the final ODI.

Overall Top 5

1. Sam Curran - 4051 - A literal damp squib for Curran's return to the England set up as he garners only 30 points from the shambolic first T20i against South Africa. More to come.

2. Jos Buttler - His top scoring week moves him back up a place to second.

3. Liam Dawson - 3503 - Bit parts in two games this week but only 21 points and down a place to third. There is, however, a huge gap between him and fourth place - 537 points is the largest gap of any point in the List.

4. Nat Sciver-Brunt - Inactive again this week and lucky that so many just below her were wither inactive too or having stinkers.

5. Ravindra Jadeja - 2804 - Inactive again and Pooran's score of just 13 in the CPL means that his lead on sixth place is still 47 points.

Ones To Watch

Saim Ayub only got 47 points this week but the long time bottom spot player is on the up and up. he is 7 points from 19th and only 400 separate him from 15th.

Top 3 Averages

1. Sam Curran - 162.04 (Down from 167.54)
2. Chamari Athapaththu - 149 ( Up from 143.6)
3. Nat Sciver-Brunt – 141.24

Athapaththu moves up the most this week whilst Jasprit Bumrah's swing from red ball to white ball cricket sees him drop by 5.84 points to 15th.
