The International Cricket Council (ICC) introduced the 'Player of the Month' awards in 2021. It was introduced to recognize outstanding performances in international cricket each month. Both full member and associate member nations' players are eligible for the award.
The ICC formed an independent voting academy to select the winners. This academy includes former cricketers, commentators, and journalists from around the world. Fans also have a role in the selection process.
How does the nomination and voting carry out?
Each month, the ICC Awards Nominations Committee selects three nominees based on their individual performances and overall achievements. These performances are considered from the first to the last day of the month.
The nominees are then voted on by the voting academy and fans. The voting academy's vote accounts for 90%, while the fans' vote makes up the remaining 10%.
