Cricket West Indies (CWI) is brimming with pride after Gudakesh Motie was named the ICC Men’s Player of the Month for May 2024. This latest accolade adds to a string of successes for West Indies cricket this year, following Hayley Matthews’ ICC Women’s Player of the Month award in April and Shamar Joseph’s win in January.
Motie’s exceptional bowling throughout May was instrumental in propelling the West Indies to a dominant 3-0 series victory over South Africa at home. His impressive figures of 8 wickets at a phenomenal average of 8.50 cemented his role as a key player for the team. Motie’s form has continued to shine in the ongoing ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, where he has already claimed 5 wickets at an average of 11.
