The columns shaped as stumps and bails representing 3 fundamental aspects of cricket: batting, bowling and fielding while the globe represents a cricket ball. It stands 60cm high and weighs approx. 11kilograms.
The names of previous winners are engraved on the base of the trophy, with space for a total of 20 inscriptions.
