Jasprit Bumrah’s dominance is evident throughout! The Indian pacer led the team to a long-awaited T20 World Cup victory, ending a 17-year drought for the trophy. Recognizing his stellar performance, the International Cricket Council (ICC) awarded him the ‘Player of the Month’ for June on Tuesday.
Bumrah beats captain Rohit to win the award
India’s winning captain Rohit Sharma was also in contention for the ‘Player of the Month’ award alongside Afghanistan batter Rahmanullah Gurbaz. However, Bumrah clinched the award due to his remarkable spell in the T20 World Cup final, which turned the game in India’s favor from an almost-defeated situation.
“I am delighted to be named the ICC Men’s Player of the Month for June. It’s a special honor for me following a memorable few weeks spent in the USA and West Indies. We have had a lot to celebrate as a team, and I’m delighted to be able to add this personal accolade to the list,” Bumrah said.
