Dubai, Apr 15 (UNI) Australia’s newest batting sensation Georgia Voll, who made her international debut in December of last year, took home the honour for the ICC Women’s Player of the Month for March 2025.
Voll beat competition from senior compatriot Annabel Sutherland and USA’s Chetnaa Prasad.
The 21-year-old played a crucial role in Australia's 3-0 whitewash of the White Ferns in March.
Voll helped the team by providing confident starts along with the experienced Beth Mooney at the other end, finishing second in the run-scoring charts (161 runs) behind her opening partner.
Voll began with a 50 off 31 deliveries in the opening game, before a quickfire 36 off 20 in the second T20I, and wrapped up the series with a career-high 75 off 57 in the final game.
Voll’s success means that Australian players have won the monthly award for the fourth month in a row, with Annabel Sutherland bagging it in December 2024 followed by Beth Mooney in January and Alan King in February.
Elated at being named the Player of the Month, Voll said, "Winning this award is certainly a nice way to cap off what's been an incredible summer for myself and the team."
"To go to New Zealand and claim that T20 series against the World Champions was the perfect way to end the season. It's been a whirlwind first summer in the Australian side and I'm excited for what next season holds," she added.
