    The 26-year-old was also adjudged the 'White-ball Cricketer of the Year' after a stellar season.

    Meanwhile, Mohammad Rizwan, the stand-in captain for Pakistan's first Test against New Zealand, bagged the 'Test Cricketer of the Year award'.

  • Babar

    A magnificent season for Babar

  • Babar was in sublime touch last year, having averaged over 50 across formats.

    He amassed 338 runs from four Tests at 67.60, including a ton.

    Furthermore, he racked up 221 ODI and 276 T20I runs at 110.50 and 55.20 respectively.

    He was among runs as Pakistan toured England after the COVID-enforced break.

    As a result, he was rewarded with the captaincy in all three formats.

    He aggregated 302 Test runs at an average of 43.14, and also inflicted 13 dismissals.

    Notably, he averaged 40.25 in England and presently has an average of over 60 in New Zealand.

    During the last season, he also replaced Sarfaraz Ahmed as Pakistan's mainstay wicket-keeper across formats.

  • Middle-order batsman Fawad Alam claimed the 'Individual Performance of the Year' award.

    He earned the recognition for his terrific century against New Zealand in the recently-concluded first Test.

    Besides, young fast bowler Naseem Shah was named Men's Emerging International Cricketer of the Year.

    The 17-year-old, who impressed with his express pace, ended with 12 wickets from five internationals last year.

  • Do you know?

    First ton for Alam after a decade

  • Alam's 102 off 269 balls in the second innings brought back Pakistan into the contest against New Zealand. However, his dismissal ended their hopes. This was Alam's first hundred in Test cricket after over a decade, as his last ton came in 2009 (debut Test).
