2026 All Year Fantasy Competition

[The Professor]

Weekly Top 5

1. Shubman Gill - 269 - Bit of a blockbuster week for the Gujarat captain as he scores 149 runs in two games to grab his first Cricketer of the Week in almost two years. He is now joint 6th on the All Time List alongside Moeen Ali and Joe Root with 11.

2. Jos Buttler - 244 - Identical scores of 57 across his two IPL fixtures this week sees Buttler with his biggest score of the year. Really has used the IPL to dispel his World Cup Critics. Nobody has scored more than his 1141 points since the IPL began.

3. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi - 239 - The Vaib Train rumbles on after two weeks of lower scores he is back on the 200+ trail with some fierce batting over his two IPL games.

4.Mehidy Hasan Miraz - 163 - Down on last week's score but was still an instrumental cog in Bangladesh's fifth consecutive Test win. He also is now the highest averaging Red Ball Cricketer on our List with 208 and a half points per Test.

5. Harry Brook - 157 - A rather astonishing turn of events where Brook has scored 4% of his weekly score with the bat and 86% of his total with the ball in hand. All points count....despite how unlikely.

Overall Top 5

1. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi - 2352 - Still keeps his lead close to half a thousand points despite significant movement below him. Shows no sign of allowing anybody else so much as a look in,

2. Jos Buttler - 1870 - Moves up to his highest position so far. Could the 2024 Cricketer of the Year be mounting a return to the top of the tree?

3. Aiden Markram - 1690 - Those poor scores really have caught up with him. Since the start of the IPL he averages just 56.38 points - about the same as Nicholas Pooran (52.75.) Down to 3rd.

4. Saim Ayub - 1591 - Inactive again this week but holds on to 4th.

5. Simon Harmer - 1524 - Rounds off the first block of County Championship game with his most unimpressive score - 75 - but still manages to move into the Top 5 at the expense of the injured De Kock.

Weird how English players disappear in the English summer.
