Cricketer Of The Year
My Jock Cameron campaign seems to be floundering, so I'll for for Mr. Dujon. Best keeper to pace I've ever seen. And yes, he didn't have the greatest of techniques, but he was spectacular with the gloves and reliable with the bat

There was an interesting chat involving Matt Prior during the commentary on talkSPORT 2 yesterday. He was asked what he thought of the Windies keeper and wasn’t overly complimentary, but added that he himself wasn’t a good keeper when he was first selected and it took him a couple of years of learning his trade in the Test arena before he got up to a decent standard. I would contend that he never got up to a decent standard, but it was interesting to hear him say that.
The likes of Flower, Stewart and Prior should be in a separate “Batsman who were tossed the gloves” thread.:tooth:

Don't think Prior was ever a batsman in the way that Stewart and Flower were - he was picked as wicket-keeper for Sussex from his first FC season.
