HARARE - Zimbabwe Cricket has launched the People’s Choice Award that targets cricket fans to select their best achievers of the season.
Invitation is open to all cricket fans and enthusiasts to vote for their Player of the Year, who will be honoured during the 2012 ZC Awards to be held at Country Club in Harare on November 10.
ZC spokesperson Shingai Rhuhwaya said voting will be done through the association’s social interactive platforms that include the website, Twitter, Facebook and electronic mail.
“We decided the awards would be a perfect opportunity to find out what Zimbabwe’s cricket community thinks makes an all-round good cricketer,” Rhuhwaya said yesterday.
“The criteria for the other awards is set by a judging panel and based strictly on performance statistics as well as other considerations such as development and the spirit of cricket.
“The People’s Choice Award is something quite different in that the criterion used is left entirely up to the fans of Zimbabwean cricket.”
Fans that send through their nominations on any of the platforms stand a chance to win two tickets to the awards ceremony.
