Medalists
BBL15 Player of the Year
RISHAD HOSSAIN
In his first year in purple, Bangladeshi leg-spinner Rishad Hossain had a breakout season. After being drafted by the Hurricanes in BBL|14 and unable to play, 15 wickets in his first year of the Big Bash was a great return. Rishad led all Hurricanes players in the wicket-taking column and was often used early, straight out of the Powerplay, playing a key role for the ’Canes. He had best figures of 3–26 against the Strikers.
WBBL11 Player of the Year
DANNI WYATT-HODGE
In her second year playing in Hobart, Danni Wyatt-Hodge played an important role in delivering the Hurricanes their first-ever WBBL title. Opening the batting alongside Lizelle Lee, the pair would often get the ’Canes off to a flyer, combining for 432 runs across 11 innings at an average of 48.00, as Wyatt-Hodge dominated bowlers throughout the season. She scored four half-centuries across the tournament and only trailed Meg Lanning for the most runs in the entire WBBL.
David Boon Medal – Sheffield Shield Player of the Year
JAKE DORAN
Jake Doran produced the best season by a wicketkeeper in the history of the Sheffield Shield for Tasmania, playing 10 red-ball matches this summer. He broke Sean Clingliffer’s 20-year record for the most dismissals in a season, while also scoring the most runs by any Tasmanian player in the Shield this season. Recording 51 dismissals and 647 runs while batting at number seven, Doran’s hard work off the field saw him emerge as one of Tasmania’s standout performers in the 2025–26 season.
Jack Simmons Medal – One Day Cup Player of the Year
BEAU WEBSTER
In another strong all-round domestic summer, Beau Webster once again earned selection in the Team of the Tournament and played a key role in Tasmania’s run to the One-Day Cup Final. Webster scored 310 runs at an average of 51.66, including two half-centuries and a career-high 138 against Western Australia. While his bowling returns were modest with five wickets, he delivered a valuable contribution with the ball, bowling just 27 overs across the tournament.
Veronica Pyke Medal – WNCL Player of the Year
RACHEL TRENAMAN
In her first full season following injury, Rachel Trenaman continued her comeback in outstanding fashion, producing a remarkable output with the bat. Trenaman led all batters across the WNCL with 649 runs at an average of 81.00, including two centuries and three half-centuries, and single-handedly kept Tasmania in matches on numerous occasions. In typical ‘Trenno’ fashion, with shots played all around the ground, it was a pleasure to see her back on the park and dominating opponents from across the country.
Ricky Ponting Medal
JORDAN SILK
Jordan Silk reminded the Australian cricket world of his supreme talent throughout the 2025–26 summer, with this form reflected in his nomination for the Jack Simmons, David Boon and Ricky Ponting Medals. The Tasmanian Tigers captain led from the front in all formats, scoring 824 runs across Tasmania’s Sheffield Shield and One-Day Cup campaigns. Despite missing games due to a cracked shoulder, Silk still managed to be one of the state’s best performers. His runs throughout the summer played a key role in shoring up the middle order and often helped Tasmania post competitive totals in a season where the Tigers’ batting line-up lacked consistency.
