2025 All Year Fantasy Competition

[Durhamfootman]

cheers Prof

[The Professor]

After the profligate last fortnights worth of updates only 807 points were shared between 7 cricketers this week - only merits a Top Three in my eyes.

Weekly Top 3

1. Kane Williamson - 277 - Featured in his first red Ball match of the year this week and hardly looked like he had been away by scoring 154 points to add to his 123 from a T20 Blast game against Glamorgan. Up to 8th Overall.

2. Nat Sciver-Brunt - 179 - Back to decent scores with the bat after her injury niggles that knocked her out of the back end of the T20 series. Got 119 runs across the two ODIs this week.

3. Sam Curran - 144 - Can't keep Curran down this Summer. After having done so well with the bat thus far, he chips in with a four-fer before the T20 Blast hiatus. He also reclaims the highest Short Form Point scorer from Nicholas Pooran.

Overall Top 5

1. Sam Curran - 2880 - Curran marks his ninth successive week of triple figure scores with his second week in top spot. He has 166 points on second place.

2. Liam Dawson - 2714 - Inactive this week but in anticipation of Test points next week.

3. Jos Buttler - 2550 - Only 9 points in the final game before the break for the T20 Blast but holds third place for a successive week.

4. Nat Sciver-Brunt - 2500 - Two decent ODIs sees her address her descent down the list and move back up into 4th.

5. Ravinfra Jadeja - 2415 - Inactive this week but is facing zero pressure below him - he has 441 points between himself and the next active player; Phil Salt in 7th.

Other Movers

Salt would be especially diapointed with just 70 points from a T20 game and a First class outing - but he still manages to move up a place into 7th.

Top 3 Averages

1. Sam Curran - 160 (Down from 160.94)
2. Chamari Athapaththu -143.6
3. Nat Sciver-Brunt – 142.69

Williamson's big haul sees his average improve by 10.12 points - he nwo has a very decent 115.18 a werk. Buttler's poor week sees his avergae drop to 127.7 - a reduction of 6.24.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Cheers Prof. Have a great time!

[Durhamfootman]

enjoy

[The Professor]

Will be doing the calculations late morning tomorrow so NSB's Hundred game will be carried over to next week

[The Professor]

Weekly Top 5

1. Harry Brook - 329 - Would have got to the top spot without his little foray in The Hundred last night. His bumper score sees him move up 5 places to 11th spot. Should move into the Top ten over the coming weeks.

2. Saim Ayub - 203 - His serious injury in the first week of the year and the rehabilitation for it has really affected Ayub, however he contributed all across the board this week for his highest score of 2025.

3. Yashasvi Jaiswal - 150 - Up until this week was a bit of a disappointment in the Test series against England. Of our 7 players to have featured on either side only Bumrah scored fewer runs...for obvious reasons. Finished well though.

4. Sam Curran - 109 - Has carried on his strong form into a third competition of the Summer. This is now his 11th week scoring three figures or more. Last year this was the tournament where he scored the majority of his points so he could be odds on to continue that spell.

5. Ravindra Jadeja - 102 - Our most impressive player over the England/India series ends with a decent 102 which takes him to 1016 points for the series. It is, however, his quietest Test out of the five.

Overall Top 5

1. Sam Curran - 3228 - Marks a month at the top of the list...and it's starting to look a bit foreboding. He scored huge amounts of points in The Hundred last year and already has a lead of 329 points on second - there is no gap bigger on the whole of The List.

2. Liam Dawson - 2899 - Didn't formally feature in the final Test but managed 74 in his first game in the Hundred.

3. Ravindra Jadeja - 2804 - Has used the England/India series to firmly ensconce himself into that Top Three....howver might have been hoping for higher. No immediate cricket on the horizon for him however.

4. Jos Buttler - 2632 - A score of 82 this week with just under hald of that coming from his glovework....more to come you would think.

5. Nat Sciver-Brunt - 2500 - Inactive this week but will pick up her first points of The Hundred on Friday afternoon when Birmingham play Trent Bridge.

Other Movers

Annabel Sutherland returns to cricket after a huge 19 week gap. The last time she played she was 3rd....her 88 points in The Hundred sees her move up a spot to 19th.

Top 3 Averages

1. Sam Curran - 161.4 (Down from 164.42)
2. Chamari Athapaththu -143.6
3. Nat Sciver-Brunt – 142.69

Harry Brook's blockbuster score sees his average up by 15.11 points - he now averages 117.4 a week. Kane Williamson's change in fortunes sees him drop by 5.85 - down to 114.21.

[Durhamfootman]

cheers Prof did you enjoy your jolly?

[The Professor]

Very nice......ended up booking another one for October.

Turned into quite the jet setter

[Arthur Crabtree]

Surprising (to me) that Buttler scores so many points when he hardly ever seems to operate within my zone of interest. Though I suppose he'll be playing in the late summer ODIs v SA. Weather permitting.

[The Professor]

Only Dawson and Jadeja have played more cricket than him this year which helps.

[Red Devil]

Durham with a very comfortable lead over the chasing pack again ...
