2009 Bowler of the Year

The Winner:

Dominic Lown

Taking the new ball and leading from the front Lownsy sent down 122.3 overs in the 2009 league season returning 28 wickets at miserly average of just 13.6. However the highlight of a fantastic year had to be his 8/15 when he almost single handedly dismissed a more than capable Caterham 3rd XI back to the hutch before 2:30 on a Saturday afternoon. This was unsurprisingly the best return for the division, the third best for any Surrey Champ division and also saw him outbowl one Saqlain Mushtaq!

The nominees:

Richard Cole

What an amazing all-round season from Richard Cole as he added the title of being leading wicket taker, to leading run scorer for the 2nd XI in 2009. 28 wickets at an average of 16.36 showed great control and skill in what was for him, a season never to forget.

Phil Linter

The most improved performer in the 2009 season, Phil Linter is another success of the Hampton Wick Colts & Consolidated PR production line. Adding more control to an extra yard of pace, Phil Linter “away swung” his way to 23 league wickets.
