Player
of
the
Year
Babar
was
the
only
player
to
breach
the
2000-run
mark
during
the
calendar
year
across
all
formats,
and
he
did
it
in
style
as
he
broke
past
that
milestone
in
style
while
amassing
a
whopping
2598
runs
at
an
imposing
average
of
54.12.
His
haul
of
eight
hundreds
and
17
fifties
during
the
calendar
year
was
Babar’s
best
of
his
career
to
date
and
there’s
no
doubt
the
dynamic
right-hander
is
currently
at
the
top
of
his
game.

Emerging
player
of
the
year
2022
He
enjoyed
a
tremendous
year
in
Test
cricket,
despite
team
results
not
always
going
his
way.
He
accumulated
1184
runs
from
just
nine
matches
and
did
the
bulk
of
the
heavy
lifting
for
Pakistan
in
the
longer
format.
Babar
Azam
in
ODIs
in
2022
The
Pakistan
batting
mainstay
scored
679
runs
from
nine
ODI
matches
at
an
average
of
84.87
with
three
centuries
in
2022.
It
might
be
surprising
to
note
that
Babar
only
played
nine
ODI
matches
in
2022,
but
the
28-year-old
made
them
count
as
he
smashed
three
centuries,
a
further
five
half-centuries
and
only
really
failed
with
the
bat
on
one
occasion.

And
it
wasn’t
just
from
an
individual
level
that
Babar
thrived,
with
the
Pakistan
captain
also
leading
his
team
with
aplomb
and
to
just
one
loss
throughout
the
year.
Pakistan’s
sole
loss
in
50-over
cricket
last
year
came
against
Australia
in
Lahore
and
on
stats
alone,
it
was
evident
that
Babar
was
an
easy
selection
to
win
the
coveted
ICC
Men’s
ODI
Player
of
the
Year
award
in
2022.
Babar
Azam
as
ODI
and
T20I
captain
in
2022
It
was
also
a
memorable
year
for
Babar
as
captain
in
the
white-ball
formats
as
Pakistan
won
all
three
ODI
series
they
played,
losing
just
one
match
out
of
nine
at
the
hands
of
Australia.
In
the
T20I
format,
he
led
Pakistan
to
the
ICC
Men’s
T20
World
Cup
final
–
their
first
since
2009
–
as
Babar’s
side
finished
runners-up
behind
eventual
champions
England.
However,
it
wasn’t
a
year
to
remember
for
Babar
as
a
Test
skipper
as
his
team
did
terribly
in
the
red-ball
format
at
home.
The
team
lost
back-to-back
series
at
home
against
Australia
and
England
respectively.
England
defeated
Pakistan
3-0
in
a
one-sided
series.
Pakistan’s
final
Test
series
in
2022
was
against
New
Zealand
and
a
win
eluded
the
home
side
as
both
matches
ended
in
a
draw
against
the
Kane
Williamson-led
side.
