And boy, does he deserve it! Babar Azam wowed us all with his batting prowess, notching up 53 and 60 runs during Pakistan’s commanding 3-0 ODI series triumph over Afghanistan. But that’s not all; his colossal 151-run innings in the Asia Cup opener against Nepal last month just cements his claim to fame.
Then, we have Shadab Khan, the versatile all-rounder, making his debut on the Player of the Month nomination list. His nomination sprouted from an incredible August, where he excelled with both bat and ball against Afghanistan and Nepal.

While he started slow with just one wicket in the first two Afghanistan clashes, his magic moment came with a jaw-dropping three-wicket haul for 42 runs, sealing the series sweep.
