All-rounder Trent Johnston was the clear-cut winner of the Cricket Writers of Ireland international player of the year award at a function in Stormont, Belfast last night
The 36-year-old smashed the Irish wickets in a season record with 58 in the 38 games he played and has now passed the 200 wickets and 2000 runs landmarks.
The young player gong went to 18-year-old spinner George Dockrell, who proved himself as a rising star on the international scene in his debut season. The Leinster left-armer began the year playing at the Under-19 World Cup before making his senior debut in Sri Lanka at the end of January.
The club player of the year award went to Railway Union and former Ireland opening bat Kenny Carroll, who hit 680 runs and took 24 wickets for the Sandymount side. Stephen Warke was the latest inductee to the RSA Hall of Fame. He won 114 caps for Ireland and captained his country 39 times.
