History
The Michael Bevan Medal was created as a result of an initiative from Cricket Australia to re-name the One-Day Cup after a legend of one-day cricket in Australia, in the lead up to the 2024-25 season. The process included a fan vote but the final decision was decided and ratified by the Cricket Australia board, following a recommendation from the Australian Cricket Hall of Fame.[1] Bevan received the third most votes in the fan vote, and while the One-Day Cup trophy was named after Dean Jones,[2][3] Bevan was honoured with the player of the match award being named after him.[4]
Henry Thornton of South Australia was the inaugural recipient of the award in the 2025 One-Day Cup final, as South Australia won the first Dean Jones Trophy.[5]
