The ever-consistent Bryce secured 108.31 MVP points after scoring 204 runs and taking 11 wickets last month.

The 27-year-old’s best batting display came against Surrey in the Blast where she scored 53 not out while her best bowling performance was against Hampshire, taking four wickets at an economy rate of just 4.10. The Scotland captain also finished second in the Blast MVP standings, just 0.92 points behind Bates.

The 34-year-old picked up one Match MVP in July, coming against Hampshire at the Utilita Bowl where the all-rounder scored 87 runs and took two wickets to secure 30.88 MVP points.

The top women’s and men’s domestic players have been announced using the PCA’s Most Valuable Player Rankings, powered by OFX, with these awards being the fourth out of a total of six iterations this season.

Suzie Bates and Emma Lamb are also nominated.

The players are selected by the PCA’s Most Valuable Player Rankings, powered by OFX, which picks out the game’s top performers across every single fixture. This then forms the rankings for each competition, as well as an overall table which is how the top four are selected. The MVP takes into account batting, bowling and fielding contributions as well as match defining efforts using a unique algorithm developed by CricViz.
