BLACKCAPS: Melie Kerr and Daryl Mitchell have been recognised as the country’s outstanding women’s and men’s cricketers of the year, carrying off the inaugural Debbie Hockley Medal and the Sir Richard Hadlee Medal, respectively, at tonight’s ANZ New Zealand Cricket Awards ceremony in Auckland.
Mitchell, who also won the Redpath Cup for men’s first-class batting, was recognised for a stand-out year across the board but particularly at Test level, where he scored four centuries, played a leading hand in the BLACKCAPS’ last ball win against Sri Lanka at Christchurch, and rose to No.8 in the World Test batting rankings. He ended the year with 913 Test runs.
Kerr, the first player to be awarded the newly-minted Debbie Hockley Medal for the most outstanding women’s cricketer of the year, was also named the ANZ Women’s T20I Player of the Year.
BLACKCAPS wicket-keeper Tom Blundell was recognised for his continued improvement in red-ball cricket with the ANZ Test Player of the Year award.
Blundell totalled 849 runs at 60.64 with the bat, including two centuries and six half-centuries.
