ICC Men’s Test Cricketer: In 2022, England won nine of ten Test matches under his direction.
Due to his remarkable performances as an all-rounder, England’s red-ball skipper Ben Stokes has been chosen as the ICC Men’s Test Cricketer of the year 2022.
In 2022, Stokes altered the nature of Test cricket. The 31-year-old introduced the concept of playing an aggressive brand of cricket even in the longest format of the game ever since he took over the responsibility as England’s Test captain, along with red-ball coach Brendon McCullum, which ultimately gave England plenty of success in red-ball cricket in 2022.
The legendary all-rounder for England scored 870 runs at a 36.25 average and took 26 wickets at a 31.19 average in 2022. Additionally, Stokes guided the side to nine triumphs in ten Tests, including series wins over New Zealand (3-0) and South Africa (2-1) at home, a victory against India in the lone (postponed) Test to tie the series at 2-2, and a 3-0 thrashing of Pakistan away from home.
Additionally, the outstanding all-rounder was selected to lead the ICC Men’s Test XI in 2022. With his ability to make wise choices and deploy his bowlers strategically, he proved to be just exceptional at the format. Many previous cricketers, including Michael Vaughan and Michael Atherton, have praised the player for the same, but his big test will come in June when Australia visits England for the Ashes series.
ICC Emerging Men’s Cricketer of the Year is Marco Jansen
The ICC has named Proteas speedster Marco Jansen the Emerging Men’s Cricketer of the Year 2022. The 22-year-old took 36 wickets from eight Test matches in 2022, in addition to three from four white-ball appearances.
Now, Marco Jansen demonstrated his talent with the ball even if South Africa absolutely failed to establish their dominance in the Test series against Australia. Additionally, the kid has been instrumental in keeping South Africa in contention for a spot in the final of the present World Test Championship.
