Yuvraj moves up 31 places in MVP list

Srinivas Bhogle, Debasish Ghosh and K Anil Kumar

September 24, 2007
Pakistan's Shahid Afridi [Images] continues to lead the table of the most valuable players (MVP) in the ongoing Twenty20 World Championship; in fact he has established such a big lead that it is hard to see anyone else overtaking him even if he has a poor final against India.

Afridi is up there because he had bagged the most wickets (12; jointly with Stuart Clark) with a decent economy rate and scored his 91 runs at a scorching rate of two runs per ball. He has also participated in two run out dismissals.

Yuvraj Singh's [Images] phenomenal 70 against Australia has taken him from the 40^th to the 9^th place. He should have been in the top three; but he's missing out because he didn't play against South Africa and because India's match against Scotland was washed out.

The 20-20 MVP list after the semi-finals is as follows:

Rank	Player	Country	Runs	Balls	Bat-pts	Bb	Rc	W	Bowl-pts	Ct \| St	Run Outs	Field-pts	M	Total
1	Shahid Afridi	Pak	91	45	122.15	144	158	12	225.95	1	1.5	28	6	376.10

Before Yuvraj Singh played those two stunning knocks there wasn't a single Indian player who really stood out. Even now, R P Singh and M S Dhoni are the only two other Indian players in the top twenty. This has therefore been a truly remarkable team effort by Dhoni and his boys.
