India national cricket team successfully defended their title in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup. India defeated New Zealand national cricket team by 96 runs in the final in Ahmedabad
Despite the big achievement, no Indian men’s cricketer was nominated for the ICC Player of the Month (February) award
Players like Ishan Kishan, Sanju Samson, Hardik Pandya and Jasprit Bumrah were part of the Team of the Tournament, but none made the monthly award shortlist
The nominees for February were Sahibzada Farhan, Will Jacks and Shadley van Schalkwyk
Farhan finished the tournament with 383 runs, becoming the highest run-scorer and breaking Virat Kohli’s record for most runs in a single T20 World Cup edition
India still had representation as pacer Arundhati Reddy was nominated after taking eight wickets in the T20I series win against Australia women's national cricket team.
