Dawson and Scotland captain Bryce win PCA awards
Hampshire's Liam Dawson and Derbyshire all-rounder Kathryn Bryce have been named men's and women's player of the year at the Professional Cricket Association awards.
It means both players have now won four awards apiece this year after outstanding seasons.
Dawson took 71 wickets and scored 1,280 runs across all formats as Hampshire finished second in the County Championship Division One and reached the One-Day Cup quarter-finals.
He follows the likes of Harry Brook, Joe Root and Ben Stokes in winning the award, which is voted for by his fellow professionals.
Scotland captain Bryce hit 1,650 runs and took 51 wickets, finishing leading run-scorer in the Charlotte Edwards Cup to help The Blaze win the trophy.
The 26-year-old also helped Scotland qualify for their first Women's T20 World Cup, which takes place in the United Arab Emirates this month.
"It's a massive honour to win this trophy seeing the names that have won it before and knowing that it’s been voted for by fellow players," she said.
"This is a year I will remember for a long time."
Dawson has already been named PCA men's domestic Overall Most Valuable Player (MVP), County Championship Player of the Year and captain of the PCA men's Team of the Year.
"I was very surprised but I am delighted, it’s a real highlight of my career," said the 34-year-old.
"It feels great knowing that the award is voted for by fellow players that you play against week in, week out, so when I finish my career I will look back very fondly on this achievement because it’s something I never thought would happen."
In addition to the PCA award Bryce has been named PCA Women’s Domestic Overall MVP, Charlotte Edwards Cup Player of the Year and captain of the PCA Women's Team of the Year.
She is also the first non-Englishwoman to take the award, with the likes of Tammy Beaumont and Nat Sciver-Brunt among previous winners.
England wicketkeeper Jamie Smith, 24, was named PCA men's young player of the year, with 20-year-old South East Stars all-rounder Ryana MacDonald-Gay winning the women's award.
There was also an England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) Special Merit award for James Anderson, who retired from Test cricket in July.
