The County Championship finished with a rather damp, yet dramatic, finale on Thursday with Nottinghamshire claiming the coveted title. It has certainly been a season of ups and downs for all of the teams involved and the next few posts on this site will seek to chart that, examining each of the eighteen first class counties in turn.
Some players have excelled and really challenged for a place in the national side, with others struggling to live up to past glories. From each side four 'awards' will be made. One for the top batsman (in terms of runs scored) and top bowler (in terms of the number of wickets taken). There will also be a junior prize (where relevant) for the up and coming young star for each county who has shown both talent and potential this season. A 'wooden spoon' will also be issued to the player who has had a real 'annus horribilis', a year to forget.
