Pietersen & Collingwood Big Movers In MVP Table

Kevin Pietersen and Paul Collingwood are the big movers in the England MVP after the two one-day internationals (ODIs) but Jimmy Anderson clings on to top spot by virtue of his strong showing in the Test series.

Collingwood has shown once again why he is England's most valuable and versatile player in the limited overs format. He is ranked first in the ODI MVP after scores of 64 and 37 at better than a run-a-ball and taking 4-15 at the Riverside. These performances have seen him jump to sixth spot in the overall MVP having been ranked 10th after the Test matches.

If the MVP included points for being in the spotlight there's no doubt that Kevin Pietersen would win by a distance. His brilliant 110 at the Riverside was even more remarkable and controversial because of his two "switch-hits" for six off Scott Styris. Pietersen is third in the ODI MVP but jumps to second place overall. He is second in the Twenty20 MVP after his 42 not out steered England home at Old Trafford.

Stuart Broad is fast cementing himself as an England regular across all forms of the game. He moves to third in the overall MVP with 120 runs and 12 wickets. His 2-16 from eight overs gave England a great start in the first one-day international at the Riverside and is a contributing factor to him being ranked fourth in the ODI MVP just behind Pietersen.

Luke Wright, like Broad, is another young player grabbing his opportunity with both hands. Promoted to open the batting he shrugged off the disappointment of not firing at the Riverside to smash 52 from 38 balls at Edgbaston, getting England off to a flyer. He has chipped in with useful wickets and catches, too, which sees him ranked second in the ODI MVP.

Owais Shah's brutal 49 off 25 balls sees him leap straight into fifth in the ODI MVP. Shah has scored 67 from his two knocks at a strike rate of 1.56.

Ryan Sidebottom, who has played just the one one-day international at the Riverside where he failed to take a wicket, slips to fourth in the overall MVP, while Andrew Strauss, who was drafted into the one-day squad because of Alastair Cook's shoulder impingement but has yet to play, is one spot further down in fifth overall.

Ian Bell has found it tough to get going this summer but he put his Test match woes behind him to score an unbeaten 60 out of England's 127 at Old Trafford in the Twenty20. Ironically, Bell, who was seen as more of a longer form specialist by some, is ranked eleventh in Tests but first in the Twenty20. He is ranked sixth in the ODI MVP and tenth overall.
