Jasprit Bumrah, the hero of India’s victorious T20 World Cup campaign, has added another accolade to his illustrious career. He was named the ‘ICC Men’s Player of the Month for June’, cementing his status as one of cricket’s premier fast bowlers.
Bumrah’s exceptional performance in the T20 World Cup saw him claim 15 wickets, earning him the prestigious Player-of-the-Tournament award. This achievement puts him in the esteemed company of Virat Kohli, making them the only Indian players to receive this honor in the T20 World Cup.
Under the leadership of Rohit Sharma, India made history by becoming the first team to win the men’s T20 World Cup without losing a single match. The team’s perfect record was only marred by a washout against Canada in the first round.
Smriti Mandhana, the vice-captain of the Indian women’s cricket team, secured her first ICC Women’s Player of the Month award. Her stellar performance was instrumental in India’s clean sweep over South Africa in the recent ODI series.
Mandhana’s batting prowess was on full display during the series:
Her consistent and explosive performances throughout the series earned Mandhana the well-deserved Player of the Series award.
Both Bumrah and Mandhana faced stiff competition for their respective awards:
