New Zealand women captain Suzie Bates became the first player to win both the ICC Womens ODI and T20I Player-of-the-Year awards. Bates had won the womens ODI Player-of-the-Year award in 2013 but has been named the T20I Player of the Year for the first time.The ICC took into consideration the 12 months between September 14, 2015 and September 20, 2016 which included the Womens World T20 in India this year and the Womens Championship that concluded recently. Bates scored 472 runs in seven ODI innings at an average of 94.40, second behind Trisha Chettys tally of 506 runs from 10 innings. Bates also took eight wickets at an economy rate of 3.75 during the period, the second-highest for a New Zealand player after Erin Berninghams 14 wickets.In T20Is, Bates topped the run-scorers list with 429 runs, that included four half-centuries, at an average of 42.90. Currently in Australia for the Womens Big Bash League, Bates said: It was a bit of a surprise to find out that I had won both these awards. It is always nice to be recognised for performances and after a busy year of cricket, I am pleased to have managed some consistency over both formats.The awards are always nice but the most important thing for me is to make sure I am performing consistently and helping put the team in a position to win more games.For the past one-and-a-half years, our team has been performing very well and lots of different players have stood up and performed under pressure. It is heartening to see that the team is doing very well going into the ICC Womens World Cup 2017 which will be held in England and Wales.New Zealand automatically qualified for next years World Cup by finishing third in the Womens Championship under Bates captaincy. They won 13 of their 21 matches that counted towards the championship. New Zealand had also reached the semi-finals of the World T20 earlier this year.Bates was also named in the Womens Team of the Year 2016, announced by the ICC for the first time, with West Indies Stafanie Taylor as the captain. The side was selected by a panel chaired by Clare Connor and took into account performances during the same 12-month period from September 2015 to September 2016.Womens Team of the Year (in batting order): Suzie Bates (New Zealand), Rachel Priest (New Zealand) (wk), Smriti Mandhana (India), Stafanie Taylor (West Indies) (capt), Meg Lanning (Australia), Ellyse Perry (Australia), Heather Knight (England), Deandra Dottin (West Indies), Sune Luus (South Africa), Anya Shrubsole (England), Leigh Kasperek (New Zealand), Kim Garth (12th) (Ireland) Kevin Faulk Jersey .B. - Sebastien Auger made 44 saves as the Saint John Sea Dogs edged the visiting Acadie-Bathurst Titan 2-1 on Saturday in Quebec Major Junior Hockey League action.

Ryan Allen Jersey . -- The plastic that was taped across the lockers in Oaklands clubhouse came down and the champagne that was on ice went back into the cooler. CLEVELAND -- Fresh off a World Series appearance, the Cleveland Indians want to hang on to one of the players who got them there.The team is expected to pick up their $12 million contract option on slugger Carlos Santana for next season. An announcement could come as early as Friday.Santana hit a career-high 34 homers and drove in 87 runs this season as the Indians got to the Series for the first time since 1997. They had a 3-1 lead over Chicago before losing two straight at home to the Cubs, who won their first championship since 1908.Cleveland had until five days after the final out to exercise their 2017 option on the 30-year-old Santana.Manager Terry Francona used Santana primarily as his designated hitter this season with Mike Napoli taking over at first.Santana has developed into a dependable middle-of-the-order run producer the Indians lacked for many seasons. The switch--hitter has batted leadoff and as deep as sixth in Franconas lineup.ddddddddddddWith Napoli eligible for free agency this winter, the Indians wanted to make sure they also hung on to Santana, who has walked at least 99 times in each of the past three seasons. It will be interesting to see how aggressive the Indians are about singing Napoli, who also hit 34 homers during the regular season but struggled in the playoffs and the 35-year-old batted just .167 in the World Series.The Indians can negotiate with him exclusively before free agency begins.When the club signed Napoli in January, Santana willingly accepted the move to DH and he volunteered to play left field in Wrigley Field during the Series when the Indians had to play by National League rules.
