Nicky Boje moved to within sight of top spot in the PCA MVP thanks to his stunning form with the bat.
The Northamptonshire skipper was the week’s biggest mover in the overall standings, climbing to second place on the back of his magnificent unbeaten 226 against Worcestershire.
Boje, whose tally for the season stands at 398 runs, has also taken 11 wickets in all competitions, and has earned extra recognition as captain for games won.
Essex’s Ravi Bopara remains the leading player in the country despite not being able to add to his points tally last week - he was involved in the tour match against New Zealand - but his lead at the summit has been cut to 15 points.
Yasir Arafat took seven wickets in two Friends Provident Trophy games for Kent over the weekend to move up to third overall, while team-mate Azhar Mahmood drops two places to fifth.
Matt Prior remains fourth, having failed to reach 50 just once in seven attempts this summer.
