Fantasy Cricket 2017 – Week Five (by Ian Hewson)
Four games across the weekend (thirds played twice) and a good amount of points scored across the three teams. Aks consolidates his top spot with Alex Sparks now the nearest in pursuit, his score also taking him top of the monthly score for June.
Don’t forget to let Ian Hewson know if you want to make any transfers and he’ll send across your team and player ratings. New additions Callum Hendy (all-rounder) and Jacob Hurry (batsman/keeper) have been added to the list and they are bargains!

Players
Weekly
After a majestic all-round performance that saw him hit 60, take three weekends and get a direct hit, it’s no surprise that this week’s Player of the Week is Luke Desave. Solid performances from those just below him (some helped by the two games) make it a high scoring week for a lot of players.

| 1 | L Desave | 52 |
| 2 | O Beale | 29 |
| 3 | T Trott | 28 |
| 4 | B Evett | 27 |

Overall
That performance from Luke sees him wrest top spot of Kev Crout, the latter dropping to second. Another good week for Trotty sees him up to third while a good week for two 16-year-olds Oli Beale and Ben Evett see them rise up in the top 10.
