Van Schalkwyk, Jacks, Farhan Nominated For ICC Player Of The Month February Award
International Cricket Council: Pakistan’s Sahibzada Farhan, the USA’s Shadley van Schalkwyk, and England’s Will Jacks have been shortlisted for the International Cricket Council (ICC) Player of the Month award for February, following their exceptional performances in the recently concluded Men’s T20 World Cup.
Farhan emerged as the leading run-scorer at the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026, delivering a sensational batting display for Pakistan throughout February. The right-handed opener broke the record for most runs in a single edition of the tournament, surpassing Virat Kohli’s previous mark of 319 runs in 2014. Farhan amassed 383 runs at an impressive strike rate of 160.25, averaging 76.60.
The Pakistan batter also recorded two centuries during the tournament, becoming the first player to score multiple tons in a single Men’s T20 World Cup edition, with his hundreds coming against Namibia and Sri Lanka. His prolific run-scoring was instrumental in helping Pakistan reach the Super 8s, though they narrowly missed out on a semi-final berth.
