Fixtures & FTI MVP Explanation.....................page 6

raeme Swann has won the coveted crown of
Winter FTI MVP.
Swann trailed Kevin Pietersen by 14 points after
the Pakistan series, but his 16 wickets against Sri
Lanka saw him finish 12 points ahead of secondplaced Pietersen.
Returns of 4-75 and 6-106 in the second Test at
Colombo staved off the formidable challenge of
Pietersen, who also enjoyed his best Test of the
winter with 193 runs including a breath-taking 151
off 165 balls in the first innings.
Swann's victory was his third title after wins in
2010 and 2009-10. He also finished top of the Test
FTI MVP after taking 29 wickets and scoring 147
runs.
Having scored just 100 runs from his first eight
Test innings of the campaign, Pietersen’s second
spot equals his previous best finishes in 2008-09
and 2007-08. Earlier in the winter he won the t20
FTI MVP.
Alastair Cook, who won the Summer FTI MVP as
well as the Test FTI MVP in 2010-11, finished third
overall but a huge 42 points behind Pietersen.
The England one-day captain, who topped the
ODI FTI MVP, scored 157 runs against Sri Lanka
including 94 and 49 not out in the second Test.
James Anderson has been England's most
consistent Test cricketer since the inception of the
FTI MVP. The 2010 Test winner finished this Test
campaign in second, one better than his summer
FTI MVP overall game average points

ranking and equal with his Ashes effort last winter
when he finished behind Cook.
This winter saw him prosper in far from favourable
conditions. His best return, 5-72, came in the first
Test with Sri Lanka at Galle.
Stuart Broad ended the Test FTI MVP in third
despite missing the last Test with a calf injury.
Monty Panesar played only three Tests this
campaign but took 16 wickets to finish fourth in
the Test FTI MVP.

We found:
> Too much focus on individual
elements of the game – averages, run
rates, wickets taken.
The FTI MVP rankings were introduced
in 2007 with the aim of identifying
the Most Valuable Player (MVP).
Unlike other rankings they combine
calculations from all domestic
competitions and across all aspects of
a player’s game.
However they can also be broken down
to focus on individual competitions
and specific playing roles. The formula
behind the rankings was devised by
PCA members, who took into account
their own match experiences and the
relative achievements of bowlers,
batsmen, wicket-keepers and fielders.
By combining all those disciplines
the FTI MVP rankings add up to the
newest benchmark in the game. The
FTI MVP rankings are powered by data
from PA Sport, the global leader in
sports information. They are updated
following the conclusion of every game
from the county circuit.
The FTI MVP concept has now become
integrated into the fabric of English
cricket.
Background
> A need for more relevance to all
aspects of the game.
> A need to reflect a player’s total
contribution to the team.
So we set out to devise a system that
rewards players who are skilled in
multiple disciplines – taking wickets,
scoring runs, holding catches and
effecting run-outs.
The Design Challenge
During the 2006 season the PCA’s
Cricket Committee – including a cross
section of players - carried out the
following steps:
> Conducted an overview of existing
player data.
> Designed the MVP concept and
identified the objectives.
> Conducted an end-of-season review,
focusing on comparing performances.
Current and former players from the
domestic game and the international
arena were involved every step of the
way to ensure the end result truly
reflected the views of the people in the
thick of the action.
The Formula
The FTI MVP rankings are based on a
cumulative points system that rewards
players for every run scored, every
wicket taken and every catch held.
In simple terms the points gained
for batting, bowling, fielding,
captaincy and winning – across every
competition – add up to a player’s total
FTI MVP points
Batting – Batting points are based on
runs scored plus percentage of a team’s
total.
Bonus points for reaching a century,
achieving a benchmark run rate, scoring
more than 30% of a team’s runs
Bowling – The basis for are points for
batsmen’s order in the line-up minus
economy rate.
Bonus points for achieving a benchmark
economy rate, taking more than five
wickets in an innings, bowling maiden
overs.
Fielding – Points are accumulated for
holding catches, effecting run-outs,
stumpings.
Bonus points for five fielding dismissals
in an innings.
All members of a winning team receive
a bonus, and additional bonus points
are awarded to the captain of a winning
team.
