What a year it was for Instonians, with the Shaws Bridge side collecting three trophies, including an all-Ireland T20 trophy.

Instonians played a brash, attacking in your face brand of cricket that paid off handsomely for them as the formula worked time and time again.

Cade Carmichael led the way with 1074 runs at 48.82 that included four hundreds and fifties, while Shane Dadswell - who is staying in Ireland in an effort to become Irish qualified - hit 957 at 41.61 at an incredible 173.37 strike-rate (1 hundred/ 5 fifties) while Neil Rick matched his strike rate on his way to 911 at 43.38 (2 hundreds, 7 fifties).

Andrew White (571) and skipper Nikolai Smith (535) also passed 500, while Rob McKinley managed 419 in his ten appearances.

Cian Robertson with 50 wickets was the stand-out bowler in the region, while Andy White again impressed with 42 scalps and Shane Dadswell collected 38.

There was a bit of a gap then to Ben Rose (21) and James Magee (19), while there double figure contributions too from David Agnew (13), James Lambert (13) and Cade Carmichael (11).

Plenty on depth and quality on show at Instonians, and allied with an impressive youth set-up you get the feeling that the solid foundations laid will mean plenty more trophies over the coming years.
