Weekly
1. Babar Azam - 211 - Babar Azam against the Netherlands was always going to be a big scoring week and so it was as the Pakistan captain gets his first Cricketer of the Week award since March.
2. Glenn Maxwell - 187 - The Big Show has been something of a no show before this week in The Hundred, but turned it on for the London Spirit with both bat and ball in their two fixtures. Up 2 places to 8th on the Overall list.
3. Mohammad Rizwan - 153 - Is having to prove some doubters wrong for the first time in his career and things looked shay after failing with the bat in the first ODI, however 69 in the second put him back on track to finish third for the week.
4. Ben Stokes - 150 - Despite the disappointing nature of his first defeat as England captain, Stokes' 40 runs and 3 wickets add up to a decent enough total to nip into the Top 5.
5. Moeen Ali - 142 - The man bloody loves a T20 tournament & will come up with the goods at least once every two or three games. Such was the case this week, where he did not do so well against the Welsh Fire but made up for it with a half century against the Trent Rockets
Overall
1. Simon Harmer - 4235 - Inactivity is no big issue when those in second place aren't scoring points. He keeps his 1179 point cushion and may very well play in the second Test against England.
2. Rishabh Pant - 3056 - A rare thing for the Indian player - an inactive week. This is only his 7th week off this year. Holds second place.
3. Mohammad Rizwan - 3025 - Despite getting the third highest score of the week, Rizwan fell 31 point short of reeling in third place. There is always next week.
4. Moeen Ali - 2969 - Making 4th spot his own. He has been there for 5 weeks now and has a 381 point gap on 5th place.
5. Babar Azam - 2588 - 2020's top scoring cricketer has been off the pace this year and has spent 13 weeks out of the Top 5 but manages to leap over the anodyne looking Bairstow and Root to pop his head in the door.
Ones To Watch
Just an 8 point gap between Bairstow and Root this week. Root was above him at the start of the week but has dropped 2 places whilst Bairstow kept 6th place. Who will challenge for the Top 5 in the second Test?
Top Three Averages
1. Simon Harmer = 211.75
2. Babar Azam = 161.75 (Up from 158.47)
3. Ben Stokes = 145.31 (Up from 145)
For the second week in a row, Kane Williamson improves his average. Last week it was by a solitary point, this week it was by 4. He still has the worst average of anybody. Matt Critchley's Hundred cameo sees him as the biggest loser; shedding 8.08 points. He now scores 132.07 every week he plays.
