West Indies spinner Jomel Warrican won the ICC Player of the Month award for the month of January 2025 for orchestrating an emphatic series-levelling run for his team in Pakistan. The 32-year-old picked up 19 wickets during the two-match Test series at the Multan Cricket Stadium in the second half of January, and also bagged the ‘Player of the Series’ award for topping the wicket-taking charts.

Warrican won the prestigious ICC honor by defeating some heavy competition from Indian spinner Varun Chakravarthy and Pakistan’s enigma machine Noman Ali.

On February 11, Jomel Warrican won the prestigious ICC honor, thus becoming only the third West Indies cricketer in history after fellow spinner Gudakesh Motie and tearaway paceman Shamar Joseph to do so.

He picked up each of the two five-wicket hauls of his career during the recently-concluded two-match Test series in Pakistan.
