Aussies sweep the awards too

Mark and Steve Waugh and fast bowlers Jason Gillespie and Glenn McGrath scooped the awards for the five-Test cricket series against the West Indies which finished in Sydney on Saturday.

A set of awards, which will be played for in every Australia-West Indies series, went the way of the hosts like everything else in this summer's 5-0 series sweep.

Steve Waugh won the Sir Garfield Sobers award for the most outstanding batsman of the series while his brother Mark won the Joe Solomon award for the best fielder.

Jason Gillespie's 20 wickets in the series earned him the Alan Davidson award for the most outstanding bowler while Glenn McGrath's match-winning performance in the first Test at Brisbane was adjudged the best individual performance.

McGrath was presented with the Norman O'Neill award for his match figures of 10-27.
