TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO'S DENESH RAMDIN IN LINE FOR ICC AWARD
Trinidad and Tobago’s West Indies wicketkeeper Denesh Ramdin is the only player from West Indies nominated for an International Cricket Council (ICC) award this year.
The 21-year-old wicket-keeper may not be heading to Malaysia with the rest of the squad, but he has been nominated for the ICC's Emerging Player-Of-The-Year award. He made his international debut last year in Sri Lanka, and has played 12 Tests and 14 limited-overs internationals.
The sport's world governing body announced on Wednesday that Ramdin has been nominated with seven others for the award, along with Monty Panesar, Alastair Cook, and Ian Bell of England; Malinga Bandara and Upul Tharanga of Sri Lanka; Mohammed Asif of Pakistan, and Shahriar Nafees of Bangladesh.
The ICC Awards ceremony will take place at the National Centre for the Performing Arts in Mumbai, India, on October 23 during the ICC Champions Trophy championship.
The ceremony is now in its third year and this will be the first time it has been staged in India. Previous ceremonies were held in London two years ago and Sydney last year.
This year's awards will feature the selection of the Test and One-Day International Teams-Of-The-Year, and an award to the side that has adhered most to the Spirit of Cricket.
There will also be seven individual awards, including two new ones this year for Captain-of-The-Year and Women's Cricketer-Of-The-Year.
The Captain's award is designed not merely to recognise the most successful leader, but is also intended to reward the player who has displayed excellent tactical awareness, has best fulfilled obligations to the game as set out by the ICC and the Laws of Cricket, and has best demonstrated the Spirit of Cricket during the voting period.
The Women's award is designed to recognise the outstanding female player for the voting period and is included for the first time since the integration of the ICC and the International Women's Cricket Council last year.
