Week 2 of the Big Bash League

Week 2 of the Big Bash League will be remembered purely for the innings of two players who guided their teams to victory. Shaun Marsh – on return following a back injury – smashed 99 not out in the Perth Scorchers win over the Melbourne Renegades while Chris Gayle for the Sydney Thunder smashed the most sixers in twenty 20 history in Australia on his way to 100 not out against the Strikers.

So how did these results change the Power Rankings from Week 1 to Week 2? Shane Jones takes a look at the movers and shakers after week 2.
