The ICC Player of the Month honours for September went to Pakistan wicketkeeper-batter Mohammad Rizwan and India captain Harmanpreet Kaur, respectively. For her amazing performance in the ODI series in England, Harmanpreet was awarded the honour. The Bangladeshi counterpart Nigar Sultana and the Indian captain Smriti Mandhana, who both put on some impressive performances, were defeated.
“Being nominated for the award was fantastic, and winning it is an incredible feeling.. Being recognised for winning is pretty humbling considering Smriti and Nigar were also nominated “said Harmanpreet.
Harmanpreet had a spectacular month that included his leadership of India in their memorable 3-0 ODI series victory over England in addition to his performance with the bat. Since 1999, India have not won a series in England.
She set a good example for the team throughout the series, earning the most runs with 221 runs at an average of 221 and a strike rate of 103.27.
Her fast-paced 74-run ODI innings in the first match helped India defeat Pakistan while chasing 228. Her second-highest score in the 50-over format came in the second ODI, as she slammed an outstanding unbeaten 143 off just 111 balls.
Men’s left-arm spinner Axar Patel of India and all-rounder Cameroon Green of Australia lost to Rizwan for the prize. In September, Rizwan was in outstanding shape and had some scorching performances in T20Is.
“All of my teammates deserve my sincere gratitude for making things simple for me. Your confidence is boosted by these successes. I am pleased with my performance, and I want to carry it over to Australia “Rizwan stated in jubilation.
In the ten games Rizwan played the month before, he recorded seven fifty-point plays. His month got off to a strong start with two 70+ scores in the Asia Cup matches versus India and Hong Kong. He finished the competition as the top run-scorer with another fifty.
Rizwan had four innings of at least 60 in the first five T20Is of the seven-match series against England.
The ICC will award gold medallions to both winners.
