All rounder Chris Shaw has shot to favouritism for the Darren Scarborough MDP Award, after starring with bat and ball in Dedication's first two games. After three games, Shaw has made 45 runs at an average of 45, and taken 8 wickets at an average of 4. Shaw's eight wickets is already equal to Cameron Roberts' record for wickets in a tournament, and with two games still to go, Shaw looks sure to break that record. Pre-tournament MDP favourite Joel McMahon didn't start well, and would not be expected to poll strongly in the first two games. A commanding innings in game 3, however, has lifted McMahon back into contention for the award.
