Weekly Top 5
1. Babar Azam - 242 - Fourth Cricketer of the Week accolade for Azam who scored the highest score for the week despite scoring 0 points in the middle T20 against Ireland. This is his 19th COTW in his five years on the List. Just 23 to catch up to Harmer who has the most.
2. Daryl Mithcell - 165 - Seems to have put his poor form behind him. Helps that he played two games (but then again so did our other 3 Chennai players). Despite the second highest score of the week he holds 13th place overall with a 65 point gap to 12th.
3. Shubman Gill - 164 - Hasn't been a vintage IPL for Gill. After having scored 346 points in the first fortnight, he then went on to bag 87 up to last week. His 104 against Chennai a reminder of his prodigious form.
4. Sam Curran - 153 - Not hugely eye-catching this campaign but has been fairly consistent. This is his third 100+ score across the tournament. Moves up 3 places to 8th overall in a very fluid mid-table.
5. Moeen Ali - 116 - Has been much more of an asset for Chennai in the second half of the season. He scored 40 fewer points in his two games this week than he has in his whole competition up to this point.
Overall Top 5
1. Babar Azam - 2359 - Sat there in his top position for a 13th week. The chasing pack seemed to be edging closer, but his weekly high score jerks him away form them once more. The 370 point gap between him and second is the largest on the List once more.
2. Chamari Athapaththu - 1989 - A well earned rest for the Sri Lankan captain after her Women's T20 World Cup Qualifier heroics. The problem is that break could extend as long as June and a series with West Indies Women.
3. Yashasvi Jaiswal - 1793 - Just 62 points scored over the last fortnight; rather undoing his three weeks of three figure scores before that. Still holds third though.
4. Ravindra Jadeja - 1637 - Controversy dogged Jadeja this week but over and above that he scored modestly but still retains fourth spot.
5. Travis Head - 1567 - Inactive this week but a poor week for James Vince sees him hold fifth with a gap of 48 from the Hampshire captain.
Top 3 Average Points per Active Week
1. Babar Azam -181.46 (Up from 176.42)
2. Chamari Athapaththu - 165.75
3. Virat Kohli - 133.8 (Down from 141.21)
Daryl Mitchel's average improves the most - however even an improvement of 5.6 doesn't see him edge over the 100 points a week mark. Buttler drops the most for the second consecutive week - down by 7.51, he has leaked 17.84 points on his average in the last fortnight.
