England's Nat Sciver-Brunt has been nominated for the ICC Women's ODI Cricketer of the Year Award and for the Women's Cricketer of the Year with Joe Root shortlisted for Men's Test Cricketer of the Year.
Sciver-Brunt landed two nominations after she played a vital role in England's 2-1 series victory in the ODI leg of the Women's Ashes, where the all-rounder smashed two centuries and took three wickets along with being named Player of the Series.
Fellow England international Lauren Bell, who picked up three wickets from four appearances during the Women's T20 World Cup in February and impressed during the Ashes as well, is named in the Emerging Women's Cricketer of the Year list and team-mate Sophie Ecclestone is recognised on the Women's T20I Cricketer of the Year shortlist.
Performances between January 1, 2023 and December 31, 2023 were taken into account, during which period Root, who won the men's Test award in 2021, scored 787 runs and took eight wickets in eight matches with a highest score of 153no against New Zealand.
Australia's Usman Khawaja and Travis Head are among the other nominees after impressing during the World Test Championship and The Ashes.
