Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the...
2015/16 Season Awards!
Test Batting
Most Awards - Darren Bravo - 4 awards - Oh, what a surprise. You might see that name a few times.
Most Runs - Kirk Edwards - 900 runs - This one was a surprise to me. We played 9 tests this season, so that's amazing.
Breakout Player - Max Browne - For a man we didn't think could bat, an average of almost 30 isn't bad, and he's a handy gloveman too!
Test Bowling
Most Awards - Sunil Narine - 4 awards - I'm going to get sick of typing his name too, I can tell.
Most Wickets - Sunil Narine - 44 wickets - Bowled the most overs by a long way too, but it's 13 ahead of anyone else.
Breakout Player - Kevin Stoute - Didn't play a test before last season, but was our second highest wicket taker this. Cracking.
ODI Batting
Most Awards - Shane Burton - 6 awards - Very impressive from Shane this year, he's really cemented a place in that top order.
Most Runs - Adrian Barath - 777 runs - Burton had the best average, but Barath had more runs by virtue of playing more matches, and rather well!
Breakout Player - Dolston Tuit - Not really improved, but no-one has considerably. His 185 runs in 5 ODIs show promise.
ODI Bowling
Most Awards - Sunil Narine/Imran Khan - 6 awards each - They've both been rather good in ODIs this year, so it's fitting that the spin twins share this award.
Most Wickets - Sunil Narine/Carlos Brathwaite - 31 wickets each - He's got a thing about sharing his awards, hasn't he? Carlos mainly gets his wickets at the death and start though.
Breakout Player - Carlos Brathwaite - Played okay last year, but this year made sure he was a large part of the team and was ever present.
T20I Batting
Most Awards - Darren Bravo - 4 awards - I thought he'd sweep it with more awards than that, but what do I know?
Most Runs - Darren Bravo - Makes sense, really. 130 better off than his nearest rival, Powell.
Breakout Player - Kieran Powell - Powell of course played 6 fewer games, and this appears to be his form of the game.
T20I Bowling
Most Awards - Sunil Narine - 7 awards - Yet again, no surprises there. Most awards of anyone in any form.
Most Economical (min. 20 overs) - Sunil Narine - 6.02 - Yep. Economy matters more in this form, but he's still king. Matthew had an economy of 5.85, but only played 4 games.
Breakout Player - Carlos Brathwaite - Again, sort of wins this cause he emerged at the end of last season, but played rather well this year.
Notable Mentions
Mike Alford - Only man to get an award in every category. Got 9 in total, 6 for bowling.
Sunil Narine - 17 awards cross-disciplines. Brilliant season for the mystery offie.
And that just about wraps up our awards for this season. Next up, a preview of the next year, with a warning that it's looking an incredibly short season.
