Arun Chandrasekar (Souths) - 273 runs @ 54.60

With three half-centuries to his name including a knock of 82 it’s little wonder why Chandrasekar managed to make it onto this list.

Patel had a very strong start to the season, and while he had a few low scores on the back end he still makes it onto the list.

Caleb Moss (Souths) - 23 wickets @ 13.04

Back-to-back five wicket hauls for Moss in round 2 and 3 propelled him into early contention for this list, and he continued to produce across the course of the season to finish up as the second leading wicket taker in the competition.

Jordan Gray-Knight (Walkerston) - 22 wickets @ 13.59

Gray-Knight had a slow start to his campaign, taking wickets in just one out of his first four matches. But he quickly picked things up on the backend, taking multiple wickets in his final five matches, with three or more wickets in four of those.

Malkeet Singh (Walkerston) - 18 wickets @ 14.06

Singh was a constant presence in Walkerston’s bowling lineup, picking up a wicket in every match he played, with best figures of 4/37.

Third grade

Mason Procak (Sarina) - 224 runs @ 44.80

A big knock of 81 off just 44 deliveries propelled Procak into top spot on this list, but he has been consistent in both second and third grade when given the opportunity.

Gursimran Singh (Walkerston) - 222 runs @ 31.71

Despite failing to crack the 50-run mark, Singh produced multiple scores in the 30s and 40s to end up just two runs shy of top place.

Christo Hudson (Norths) - 217 runs @ 43.40

Scores at least 20 basically every week, Hudson’s 53 in the penultimate round of the elevated him onto the list.

Ken Cowper (Walkerston) - 215 runs @ 26.88

Cowper’s century in round 2 was a driving force behind his run total, to go along with 41 (31) in the final round of the season.
