Behardien dominates Titans’ annual awards
After a very successful season and years of faithful service to the Titans, Farhaan Behardien has been thoroughly rewarded this year at the franchise's annual awards ceremony.
Farhaan Behardien was the big winner at the Annual Titans Awards after a very successful 2017/18 season.
During the past season the Titans won the RAM Slam T20 Challenge, before claiming a dramatic Sunfoil Series title on the final day of the tournament.
Behardien, an achiever in all formats, helped himself to four awards on the evening, including the coveted Player of the Year trophy. He also secured the T20 Player of the Year, the First-Class Player of the Year and the Most Valuable Player of the Year, in a season that also saw him mark his 100th first-class appearance with a century.
“It has been another very productive season for our franchise team, and I congratulate coach Mark Boucher and the rest of his fantastic team for continuing to set the standards in South African domestic cricket,” Titans CEO Jacques Faul said of the Titans.
Faul said a special mention must go to Behardien, who has been a fantastic servant for Northerns and Titans cricket for years.
He deserves all the accolades that he received this evening,” Faul said of the night’s big winner.
Wrist-spinner Tabraiz Shamsi was also a multiple winner, as his productive campaign reaped the Momentum One-Day Cup Player of the Year, as well as the prestigious Players’ Player of the Year, as voted for by his teammates.
Promising batsman Andrea Agathagelou’s encouraging displays at the top of the order were rewarded with the Newcomer of Year award”.
One of the brightest stars in the Titans stable, Aiden Markram, has enjoyed a meteoric rise to international stardom, but he remains a popular drawcard when he turns out in Titans blue. The top-order ace walked away with the Bacher and Co Fan’s Player of the Year.
