Ashwin takes top award, while plenty of other big names are rewarded for stellar performances

India allrounder Ravichandran Ashwin headlined the winners of the ICC awards, collecting the Sir Garfield Sobers Trophy for ICC Cricketer of the Year.

The off-spinner also won the Test Cricketer of the Year award after enjoying a stellar run of form during the voting period, which covered September 14 2015 to September 20 2016.

Quick Single: Ashwin named ICC Player of the Year

South Africa’s wicketkeeper-batsman Quinton de Kock was named as the ICC ODI Cricketer of the Year. He is the second South Africa player after AB de Villiers (2010, 2014 and 2015) and ninth overall to clinch this award.

West Indian Carlos Brathwaite was the ICC T20I Performance of the Year award for his match-winning 34 not out off 10 balls in the ICC World Twenty20 India 2016 final against England in Kolkata.

India claim series after Ashwin blitz

Bangladesh fast bowler Mustafizur Rahman claimed the ICC Emerging Cricketer of the Year award. In the period under consideration, Mustafizur played three ODIs and took eight wickets, while he yielded 19 wickets in 10 T20Is. He is the first Bangladesh cricketer to win an annual ICC award.

Afghanistan’s flamboyant wicketkeeper-batsman Mohammad Shahzad was named as the ICC Associate and Affiliate Cricketer of the Year after he finished as the leading ODI run-scorer with 699 runs in 16 one-day matches.
