After a stellar 12-month period that's seen him become a regular for the Proteas in Test cricket, all-rounder Marco Jansen was named the ICC Men's Emerging Cricketer of the Year on Wednesday. | Sport24news
The 22-year-old won the award ahead of New Zealand's Finn Allen, Arshdeep Singh of India and Afghanistan youngster Ibrahim Zadran.
Jansen has made his mark in Test cricket, in particular, where he has played eight matches, taking 36 wickets. "I am lost for words right now after what I think has been a dream year for me," a delighted Jansen said. Jansen is still finding his feet in the shorter format of the game and has represented South Africa in three ODIs and one T20 international.
