Turnaround

Bearing in mind my top score from the last cricket season (153 not out) was quoted as the reason, I have a life lesson. Getting drunk can win you things. I'm really chuffed this evening, because I have come home from the league AGM (and league awards) with a brand new cricket bat after scooping the Divisional Player of the Year Award for 2013.

I thought one of my teammates had a chance of winning it, as his all-round figures for the season were pretty handy, but I was honestly expecting to hear the name of someone from another club. To hear my name read out as the winner then was pretty damn surprising. Especially as I was in trouble towards the back end of the season for misuse of social media. I didn't think I was in contention at all.

It's really rewarding to be recognised by your peers. I've got a huge smile on my face.
