Male One-Day International Player of the Year: Marcus Stoinis

Female One Day International Player of the Year: Alyssa Healy

Betty Wilson Young Cricketer of the Year: Georgia Wareham

Bradman Young Cricketer of the Year: Will Pucovski

Male Test Player of the Year: Nathan Lyon

Three players were also inducted into Australian cricket's Hall of Fame. They were Dean Jones, Billy Murdoch and Cathryn Fitzpatrick all to be honoured.

Fitzpatrick played 109 ODIs for Australia during a 15-year career, as well as 13 Tests for Australia and later coached the national side, all during a period when female cricketers still held full-time jobs outside of cricket and when the women's game didn't receive the same attention it does today.

Cummins is now the ICC World #1 Test bowler.

The last Aussie #1 was McGrath, in 2006.

Rabada drops to third, after SL's upset win against SA.

So, tonight. Who gets the male test player of the year 2020 award? Bradsmith, Warner, Cummins or Starc?

Does the vote system make it nearly impossible for Marnus?

FTB or Warner would be laughable (at least Broad would be laughing).

Well deserved.

(But is the voting biased against bowlers? Should Cummins have finished behind FTB?)

Broad will be laughing, but well done to Marnus at least.

England and Nottinghamshire have made posts on social media mocking Warner's award.

Nottinghamshire's is particularly lacking in subtlety, showing the typical Broad hands-on-face-in-surprise look.


As cricket commentary, this is not just fair but bleeding obvious, but as they are opponents, not commentators or media, their behaviour is just crass.

What has the sporting world come to? Who are the ****s who run English cricket now? Maybe the ones who enable and excuse a star player of theirs almost bashing a man to death in a drunken rage.

I guess their social media are run by kids, as they probably are in the AFL, but their bosses could always have ordered such posts to be taken down and fired the kids.

They'll be laughing on the other side of their face if they play against him in Australia and he makes 1,000 runs in 5 Tests against them. His Test average against England in Australia is 60.25.

Yes, but this is one of the other problems with cricket: no one plays well overseas.

Baum wants to change the voting system:

"This is hard to escape. The Australian camp can talk all it likes about how it is on the right track, but the sum of those five hectic Test matches in England would always count much more in public estimation than any series of other, lesser Tests and the endless roll of white-ball games. It's useless to pretend otherwise.
...

It's too late this year, but it is possible to redress this in future by refining the voting system. We’re back to auditing. Now, Test votes weigh twice as much as for one-dayers, and three times as much as for T20 internationals. It hardly seems sophisticated enough for a game played in so many different modes, moods, times and places.

Australia talks often of the need to improve their overseas record, so away matches could be made to count for more. ...

Then there is the problem of how a modest performance in a badly lost match counts as much as a soaring effort in an epic win, ie, three votes.

This could be countered the way some football clubs do, by awarding up to a certain number of votes a game, say 10, but not necessarily all of them, distributed among as many or few players as merit it."

[The main problem, whatever voting system you use, is that there are so few candidates for the award. This problem was noted right from the beginning. It's hardly surprising you end up one day with a winner who averaged 9 in a pivotal series.]

... and 134.33 in his next 5 Tests.

Including the Ashes series: 56.31

Allan Border quoted:

https://www.foxsports.com.au/cricket/australia/allan-border-medal-david-warner-allan-border-thinks-its-probably-time-to-reasses-scoring-system/news-story/8aa400f5c6a2d55eddb645f499ed6f2a

'Asked if extra weighting could be placed on the high-profile Ashes series, Border said that would be “very difficult” but the argument has some “merit”.

“I don’t think so, it’s very difficult to rank away Test matches against home Test matches,” he said. “I’ve heard a little bit of argument about all that and it has some merit. There’s no doubt about that.

“Maybe the voting system can be looked at. We’ve been going for 21 years, it’s probably time to have just a look at how the votes are put together and how it’s all combined over the three, four months of the game for that final winner.

“Maybe it is timely to have a bit of a look at that voting system.”'
