1. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi - 3840 - Had a front row seat to Abhiseikh Sharma's destructive century that edged his inclusion into a T20 XI even less likely in the short term. Inactive and a lead of 203.

1. Harry Brook - 392 - Brook scores the 5th largest score of the year thanks to a decent showing in the final Test against Pakistan and then a monumental T20 innings against Sri Lanka.

2. Michael Bracewell -373 - A big old score from a man who has not been over-flowing with those this year. Is really using the European T20 Premier League to his advantage. Moved up to a yearly high of 15th Overall.

3. Marco Jansen - 307 - His first red ball game of the year was a very very good one. 37 runs and 7 wickets against the Dolphins bodes well for a good South African Summer. Another good CSA 4-Day Series game could see him challenging Jadeja's red ball average of 203.25.

4. Jos Buttler - 200 - Reached a milestone of 15,000 T20 runs today and also got points back on the board for us. Was only the second most impressive Englishman but still a very solid output for the highest scoring T20 cricketer on our List this year.

5. Quinton de Kock - 198 - Continuing to make hay in the Caribbean sunshine. 88 runs this week but also a huge 70 fielding points - a discipline who was dominating this year before his long absence from the game.
