South Africa spinner Simon Harmer and India batter Shafali Verma have been named the ICC Men’s and Women’s Players of the Month for November 2025.
Harmer claimed the men’s award after a dominant performance in the ICC World Test Championship series against India, where he took 17 wickets across two matches to guide South Africa to a 2–0 series victory, their first Test series win in India in 25 years.
Verma secured the women’s honour following a standout all-round display in the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025 Final. A late addition to the squad, she scored 87 runs at the top of the order and took key wickets to help India clinch their first World Cup title on home soil.
The awards were decided through a combined vote of global fans and a specialist ICC panel comprising former international players and media representatives.
