India’s Sanju Samson, fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah, and South Africa’s Connor Esterhuizen are in the running for the ICC Men’s Player of the Month award for March 2026.
Samson’s standout performances in the Men’s T20 World Cup, including a crucial 97 not out against the West Indies, helped India secure the title on home soil. Bumrah played a pivotal role in India’s victories, notably with a four-wicket haul in the final against New Zealand.
Esterhuizen impressed with his batting for South Africa, scoring 200 runs in five matches against New Zealand. His notable performances earned him two Player of the Match awards and a significant rise in the T20I batting rankings.
