The ICC results were announced today and Indian skipper Virat Kohli managed to bag the two top awards in Sir Garfield Sobers Trophy as Cricketer of the Year and also ODI Player of the Year award. Australian skipper Steve Smith won ?Test Player of the Year? award. But was it a deserving one and better than Virat Kohli?s performance in Test cricket in 2017?
The Australian skipper cracked six tons in 11 Tests with the best score of 239 against England at Perth in 2017. He scored three tons against England at home and three against India in India in early 2017. Three of his tons yielded in a win for Australia, while two ended in a draw and one in loss. Smith averages 76.76 in 11 Tests in 2017, aggregating 1305 runs, the best by any player in the last calendar year.
