Bangladesh’s Left-arm spinner Nasum Ahmed failed to join his illustriou colleagues Shakib Al Hasan and Mushfiqur Rahim in winning the ICC Player of the Month award. Nasum was nominated for this award for his performance against New Zealand in September but the award went to Nepal’s Sandeep Lamichane. Shakib was the first Bangladeshi player to win this award following his excellent performance in May, while Mushfiqur became the Player of the Month for July. Lamichane was voted the ICC Men’s Player of the Month for September 2021 for his outstanding bowling in the ICC World Cup Super League -2 last month. He played six ODIs and took 18 wickets in total with an economy rate of 3.17.
