Marnus Labuschagne has been nominated for the PCA's June Player of the Month award after helping Glamorgan continue their unbeaten start to the season.
Labuschagne scored 324 runs in June at an average of 54 and contributed seven wickets to the cause as the Welsh county won two and drew two of their fixtures in June.
You can vote for Marnus here on the PCA website.
The PCA noted his efforts to Glamorgan's form, stating: "Glamorgan have made the early running in Division Two. The Welsh county’s success has resulted in no small part from the efforts of Australian international Marnus Labuschagne.
Labuschagne has made a consistent contribution to help Glamorgan win two and draw two in June, taking seven first-class wickets and compiling 324 runs at an average of 54. The individual highlight of the month for him was his 147 runs in the match to help his side to a comfortable victory over local rivals Gloucestershire."
The MVP formula was designed by the PCA in conjunction with the players to reward match-winning performances. Bonus points are awarded, for example, for hitting a high proportion of your team’s runs, taking top order wickets or captaining the winning side.
The formula therefore provides a more accurate representation of the top performers than traditional batting and bowling averages.
The Overall 2019 MVP will receive a £10,000 cash prize at the 50th NatWest PCA Awards in October, following in the footsteps of 2018 victor Joe Denly.
Leicestershire’s Hassan Azad, Warwickshire’s Jeetan Patel, Somerset’s Lewis Gregory and Glamorgan’s Marnus Labuschagne are the four players nominated for the June PCA Player of the Month award.
No player has earned more PCA Most Valuable Player Ranking points than the four players listed in a month, which included four rounds of County Championship fixtures.
Although the next block of Championship fixtures will begin on Sunday 30 June, with three days of those games taking place in July, points accrued in those games will count towards the following month.
