Pak Opener Sahibzada Farhan Bags ICC Players Of The Month Award For February
T20 World Cup: Pakistan opener Sahibzada Farhan has bagged the ICC Men’s Player of the Month for February 2026 after his stunning ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 campaign in Sri Lanka, where he was the highest run-getter with 383 runs in seven matches (six innings) at an average of 76.60 that included two hundreds and as many half centuries.
The right-hander had a superb run at the global event, boasting a strike rate of 160.25 while breaking Virat Kohli's longstanding record of most runs at the T20 World Cup in a single edition. He also became the first batter to score two centuries (against Namibia and Sri Lanka) in a singular global event of the shortest format.
Sahibzada won the award ahead of Will Jacks of England and Shadley van Schalwyk of the USA, following a vote conducted among global fans registered at icc-cricket.com and a specialist panel comprising former international players and media representatives.
