The International Cricket Council (ICC) has nominated Babar Azam for the Men’s ODI Player of the Year award.
According to ICC, Babar earned the nomination based on his vital contributions in the two series that Pakistan played this year.
“He was the second-highest run-scorer with 228 runs and was the Player of the Match in both of Pakistan’s wins in the 2-1 series victory against South Africa. He was the architect of Pakistan’s chase of 274 in the first ODI with a century and laid the foundation with an 82-ball 94 in the final ODI where the visitors posted 320 batting first,” the ICC said in a press release.
