Indian opener Yashasvi Jaiswal is among the batters nominated for the ICC Men's Player of the Month award for February 2024.

With back-to-back double centuries in the month against England, Jaiswal is a strong contender for the ICC Men's Player of the Month for February. Jaiswal was in top form against England, slamming 209 in Vizag in the first innings of the second Test and then going on to make a second innings double century (214*) in the next Test in Rajkot to help India take a lead in the series.

Jaiswal's knocks helped India fight back from the loss in the first Test of the series.

The left-handed opener also rose to the top of the leading run-scorer list in the ICC World Test Championship 2023-25 cycle, with 971 runs in eight matches at an average of over 69, with three centuries and three fifties.

Jaiswal created several records in February, and equalled the long-standing Test record for most sixes in a Test innings (12) during his Rajkot knock. The back-to-back double hundreds at the age of 22 years and 49 days made him the third youngest batter in the world to record two double centuries in Tests after Sir Donald Bradman and Vinod Kambli.
