The shortlists have been revealed for the two big ‘international’ awards – International Men’s and International Women’s Player of the Year ahead of the Irish Cricket Awards at Clontarf Castle on Friday night.

The 12th Irish Cricket Awards will see sixteen categories recognising players, coaches, volunteers, groundskeepers, match officials, and clubs for the contribution they make to the game in Ireland.

Two of the most prestigious awards on the night will be presented to the International Men’s and Women’s Player of the Year. The awards are peer-nominated, with players all awarding 3-2-1 rankings to their teammates.
