It was another solid season for CSNI, who although they finished in the bottom half of the Premiership, showed enough quality to end up the best of the rest. 

The youngest team in the league showed signs of maturity as a lot of their talented teenagers showed the difference a year can make as they start to feature prominently.

It was two experienced heads though that topped the averages with Marc Ellison having an excellent season on his way to 650 runs at 46.43, with four 50s and the club's only senior hundred.

Former Irish international Stuart Thompson also got four 50s on his way to 499 at 33.27.

Irish youth international James West scored 438 at 23.05, while overseas player Sean Davey made 417 at 26.06 - both scoring three half centuries.

Adam Leckey (339 at 19.94) and Harry Dyer (303 at 20.20) also had their moments with the bat.

They were hampered by Jordan Neill's sporadic appearances due to his shoulder injury which meant only eight appearances (25 runs and 9 wickets).

The bowling unit had five bowlers who claimed 20 or more wickets, with Sean Davey's 35 wickets at 20.14 including their only five-wicket haul.

Harry Dyer managed 27 wickets at 23.41, just ahead of James West whose 26 scalps came at a tad above 30.

Finn Lutton captured 21 wickets at 17.52, while Matthew Foster claimed 20 victims at 18.60.

Foster is off to pastures new at Waringstown, while there are rumours that others may be heading to pastures new over the close season.

It promises to be an eventful winter at Stormont!
