Amelia Kerr bags top honours at the New Zealand Cricket Awards

Kerr was adjudged ANZ Women's ODI Player of the Year, while she also claimed the Phyl Blacker Cup for women's domestic bowling and the Gillette Venus Cup as the Secondary Schools Female Player of the Year.

During the judging time frame, the 18-year-old from Wellington collected 415 ODI runs, at an average of 59. A bulk of those runs came in a record-shattering innings of 232 not out against Ireland. Not only is that the highest women's ODI score, but sits at number three in the all-time tally in the format. In the same match, she also took 5-17 with the ball. Her five-wicket haul was also a major contribution in her overall bowling tally, which saw her claim 19 scalps.

Meanwhile, her White Ferns and Wellington Blaze teammate Sophie Devine took home the accolade of ANZ International Women's T20 Player of the Year, for her consistent all-round contribution in the shortest format of the game.

In the domestic circuit Natalie Dodd, who was particularly destructive with the bat, was named the Women's Domestic Player of the Year, while was also claimed the Ruth Martin Cup for women's domestic batting.

After switching to Central Hinds in this edition of the Hallyburton Johnstone Shield tournament, Dodd led her side to victory. Through the course of the tournament, she scored a whopping 652 runs- making her the leading run scorer,  and resulted in her being named Player of the Tournament- at an unparalleled average of 108. Also effective behind the stumps, Dodd completed 22 dismissals as well during the domestic season.

Frankie Mackay, who had a memorable T20 season, that saw her recalled to the national side, won the BK Super Smash Player of the Year award for her all-round contribution to her team, the Canterbury Magicians.

The event also honoured retiring internationals Liz Perry and Lucy Doolan on stage.
