Our 5th Wisden Trophy Winner
NZ has produced 3 winners in the last eight years.Who are the 5? and for what performance?
NB there have only been actual winners since 2022. Prior to that they are notionalHave to assume Kane and maybe BMac from the last 8 years?
Previous winner Paddles for 1985?

I read that article, and couldn't tell what the trophy was actually for?
So it is 'performance' of the year? Not player of the year?
That would make way more sense than what I thought I was reading about.
Was thinking the same, is it part of Wisdens 5 Cricketers of the year?

They are all English.
Read this article. Wisden isn't holding back, not that it will make any difference.

Rookie Black Caps Rhys Mariu, Mitch Hay get chance to push for test debut in NZ A squad
Next crop of young ones with a mix of Black Caps experience for the NZ A side.
Surely Rhys Mariu is in with a decent shot of being selected for the test side for the Zimbabwe tour going by the numbers he racked up in the Plunket Shield this season. -

I didn't know where to put this, but this is absolutely outrageous. At just 14 years old Vaibhav Suryavanshi has scored the fastest IPL hundred off 35 balls.

@Canes4life ridiculous. What were you doing at 14? I sure as shit wasn't doing that!
Also, just turned 14! Was 13 last month

I was picking my nose and scratching my arse at that age.

And it's not like he was facing a terrible bowling lineup, they had Siraj, Sharma and Washington with plenty of international experience. Yes T20s in India favour the batsmen heavily but that is an absolutely outrageous innings at that age. He also hit his first ever ball in T20 for 6 a few weeks back as well. Crazy talent, going to be interesting to see how he develops - e.g. will he just be a T20 specialist or does he have a game that can translate to tests.
