Triple-Header BBL Day didn't disappoint at all with several players standing out with stunning performances. The best of the lot was Marnus Labuschagne, whose all-round performance handed Brisbane Heat a vital win that saw them through to the play-offs. While the Aussie held his own with a mature knock of 46, it was his bowling that truly stole the limelight. He registered his career-best figures in the BBL, helping his price rise by 14% courtesy of a match score of 111.33! In the other games, the big guns weren't able to fire as their fantasy shareholders would've liked. On a day where D'Arcy Short and Aaron Finch failed yet again, the duo of Chris Lynn and Glenn Maxwell scored whirlwind fifties to end their BBL league campaign on a high. But nevertheless, it was all about Marnus Labuschagne, whose fantasy stock price is up by 26.13% in his last two BBL games!As the BBL play-offs approach, fantasy shareholders might also cast an eye on the England tour of India, which starts in the first week of February. And if Labuschagne's rise in the Market is extraordinary, Joe Root would certainly give him a run for his money! The English captain starred in the recently-concluded Sri Lanka tour, which even saw him climb to the top of the Sixer Market as the most valuable player. But there's more to Root and his newfound form! Walking along the same lines, here's some much-needed insight to kickstart your day in the Sixer Market!Purple Patch for the Englishman - Root up by 27.98% in his last four games!It's been a start-stop year for cricket in general. As cricket recovers a bit of the normalcy that enthralled cricket fans all over the world, a certain Joe Root is making sure he doesn't miss a beat as England prepare for the all-important tour of India. While the challenges of the sub-continent are well known, Joe Root has been a man of a mission of late. The recently concluded series between England and Sri Lanka saw Root star with 426 runs to his name. To throw light over his undeniable greatness, the second-highest runscorer in the series was Mathews with 213, exactly half of what Root managed. Not to mention, Root also picked a few wickets to spur the English hopes of another stunning series win in the Sri Lankan islands. But his was always on the cards, wasn't it?Prior to the Test series, Root had already shown what he is capable of with two stunning 100+ match scores in the T20 format in the T20 Blast. Although the quality of the opposition and the nature of the format differs, Root's ability to up the ante according to the match situation truly sets him apart. In fact, he averages a match score of nearly 97 in his last five games, which is the highest for any player in the Sixer Player Roster. His ability against spin held in high regard in the Sri Lanka tour, handing his fantasy shareholders a profit of 7.63% across the tour. But one might even question the Sri Lankan's bowling quality, but not the fact that Root is well-equipped to take on Ravi Ashwin and Washington Sundar in the upcoming series, starting this February. Currently trading at 81.40 Sixer Coins, Joe Root's stock is the most valuable of them all and the fact that there's even more room for an increment, makes him the Big Bull of the Market! Will he be able to sustain his stunning rise against the Indians as well? Only time will tell!Stirling Ton In Vain as Rashid Stars in Afghan Win!Speaking of stunning rises in the Market, there's another individual who has slid under the radar, but not for long. Paul Stirling was at his rampant best on Tuesday with another hundred against the Afghans. However, Rashid Khan made sure the Afghans clinch the win with a 113-rated match score performance. Although the Irish didn't win a single game in the series, Paul Stirling's fantasy shareholders would be over the moon given his sensational performances in the ODI series. His match scores read 51.64, 135.05 and 129.81, resulting in a massive rise of 50.4%! His knack for big runs against quality spin is already a well-known fact, and with such performances, Paul Stirling is already garnering critical acclaim in the international circuit. As in Joe Root's case, Stirling still has ample room for an increment, making him a viable option in the Sixer Market! Perhaps an IPL contract in the offing? You never know!Fantasy shareholders might rue the lack of BBL action today, but there's certainly some action still going in the world of cricket! Pakistan and South Africa are already featuring in the first Test with Shaheen Afridi leading the Pakistanis to an advantageous position on Day 1. But the likes of Babar Azam and Abid Ali weren't able to cope with the incisiveness that Kagiso Rabada had in store late in the day. Pakistan's score reads 33/4 at the end of day's play with Rabada at the top of the leaderboard with a match score of 72.99! Will he, along with Lungi Ngidi and Anrich Nortje, continue to decimate Pakistan's batting unit? Or will Rizwan come up with another rearguard knock?
