Fakhar smashed centuries in each of the opening two games of Pakistan’s five-match One-day International series against New Zealand.

Fakhar said he was “truly honoured” to win the award. “This month has been one of the highlights of my career and it was an amazing feeling to play in front of my own people in Lahore, Rawalpindi and Karachi,” he was quoted as saying in the ICC news release. “I really enjoyed scoring back-to-back centuries in Rawalpindi, but my favourite was the 180 not out in the second match. I hope to continue the momentum leading into the World Cup, and make Pakistan fans happy and proud with my performances.”](https://www.thepaksports.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Fakhar-bags-ICC-player-of-the-month-award-324x160.jpg "Fakhar bags ICC player of the month award")
