After finally managing 33 at the top of the order, he lost his spot with another duck and was shunted down to the 2nd XI and further down the order. He ended the year with a promising 46, but was disappointing once again. Unfortunately, he was not disappointing enough to win his Hole in the Bat award for a record third time. At just 24 years old, he has plenty of time to add to his already impressive tally of two awards. Justin did, however, take home the duck award for his four ducks at the start of the year, shared with [[Adam Ephraums]]. |

After infamously winning the Hole in the Bat award in two consecutive seasons, Justin set about looking for a three-peat. It was not to be as the lanky left-hander put together two 30s, and a 60 in a memorable century opening stand with long time batting partner Tim Burchfield. Justin was quoted as saying "I'm drowning in runs! I don't know what to do!". He ended the year with 181 runs at 16.45, and unfortunately for him he fell far short on the Hole in the Bat award, given to Will Walton.
