Benn named West Indies' Player of the Year

Sulieman Benn was named West Indies' Player of the Year for the 2013-14 season in WICB's annual awards function in Kingston on Tuesday. Benn picked up 28 wickets in five Tests at an average of 25.03 between October 2013 and September 2014 - the period of consideration for these awards.

It looks as though Kraigg Brathwaite took him Test player of the year. Brathwaite scored 593 runs in five Tests at an average of 74.12. Over the same period, Shiv scored 854 Test runs at an average of 77.63. Only 9 batsman in Test cricket scored more runs over this period than Shiv.

Don't quite understand Benn being named player of the year. Think there were plenty of other better candidates.

dillly , dont even try to understand .... :-[

The player of the year can't even get into the team and is now the third spinner, clearly behind Bishoo and Permaul on the depth chart.  :o
