Fantasy Cricket 2017 – Week Eight (by Ian Hewson)

Back to winning ways for the 1s and 2s, while the 3s came very close to making to 3 from 3. The leader has finally changed in the league with club captain Alex Sparks taking top spot away from Aks Latifi as well as the Manager of the Month from Ian Hewson – he’s clearly been putting his time off to good use.

Players

Weekly

Definitely a week for all-rounders – there was a rewind to seasons past at the weekend as Rob Moysey tore through a team after getting vital runs with the bat to claim a massive 77 points, thanks to 5 wickets and 30 runs. His junior Arron Campbell did similar (40 and 3 wickets) to get second place while third in command Ryan Adams (50 and 2 wickets) tried to keep up. With Henwood, Desave and Trott all featuring in the top 10 too it showed an excellent week for their category.

Overall

The all-rounders continue to dominate as Moysey flies up the table to second spot behind WG Trott, with Hewson the sole non all-rounder (‘is he not??’ I hear you cry) in the top 5. Ben Evett and Jake the Snake also achieve triple figure status.
