<p>Pakistan opener Fakhar Zaman was the standout performer in the month of April. The Southpaw played some fantastic knocks and helped his side win the games. The opening batter has looked a class apart in the ongoing ODI series <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/qualification-scenario-of-india-for-the-wtc-2023-25-final-after-the-historic-test-series-lost-against-new-zealand/" title="against New Zealand" class="auto-internal-link" data-auto-link="1" data-link-type="suggestion" data-rule-id="0">against New Zealand</a>.

<p>New Zealand's Mark Chapman is the last nominee for the ICC Player of the Month award. He has found himself in the list because of his sensational performances in the T20I series <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/ind-vs-nz-2-changes-india-might-make-for-the-3rd-test-against-new-zealand-check-out-for-full-details/" title="against New Zealand" class="auto-internal-link" data-auto-link="1" data-link-type="suggestion" data-rule-id="0">against New Zealand</a>.
