Lizaad Williams was the big winner at the Titans annual awards, scooping four trophies, including the prestigious Titans Player of The Year Award.
The award ceremony was held virtually due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic with the Proteas stars leading the way.
The major winner of the evening was Williams, whose startling debut season across all formats culminated with a call-up to the national team.
Williams, who has played 4 T20Is for the Proteas, also won Newcomer of the Year, Players' Player of the Year and Most Valuable Player.
"This is all very humbling. I was thrilled to become a Titans player, but I never expected to make such an impact and settle so well with my team-mates this season," said Williams in a press statement.
"When I joined the Titans, I knew there would be huge competition for places. But it has been a brotherhood, and I couldn't have had the success I had this season without my bowling partners at the other end. Credit, too, to the coaches and management for all their patience this season.".
The evening also saw the Titans reflect on the extraordinary journey that they enjoyed during the franchise era.
"It has been an incredible passage of progress and success, and it was nice to reflect on so many great memories that we enjoyed as a franchise. Of course, the Titans brand continues, and we look forward to adding new chapters to this great Sky Blues story," Titans CEO Jacques Faul said.
The Titans also bid a fond farewell to the retiring veteran batsman Henry Davids, as well as remembering the late Andrew O'Connor, who served the game with distinction and dedication.
Proteas fast bowler Lungi Ngidi won T20 Player of the Year and batsman Aiden Markram scooped the First-Class Player of the Year after a fine performance in this season's 4-Day Franchise Series.
"We would have loved to have all been in the same room, and give a proper ovation to our great friend and mentor Andrew, as well as a proper thanks to Henry, who has been a wonderful example to every Titans player," Northerns Cricket Union president Tebogo Siko noted.
"We are grateful to have got through a season in these trying times, and we are proud of every player who has taken to the field for the franchise. A special congratulations for Lizaad Williams and his exceptional achievements in his very first season here."
