Essex Cricket can reveal the shortlist for July’s Player of the Month, for both the Men’s and Women’s teams.
Across both our Men’s and Women’s teams, we witnessed over 100 wickets taken and more than 2000 runs made. The Vitality Blast T20 competition has since ended and our attentions now turn to the Metro Bank One Day Cup and the Rothesay County Championship for the rest of the season.
July has some incredible contenders for the Players of the Month. Who impressed you? Who do you think deserves these awards? Let us know by scrolling down and choosing your favourites for the wefinanceanycar.com Men’s award and the Tiptree Women’s award.
The winning Men’s and Women’s player will be announced at the upcoming Metro Bank One Day Cup match against Surrey on Friday 15 August with voting closing at midday on Thursday 14 August 2025.
The Contenders
Mohammad Amir
What a month Amir has had! The left-arm pace bowler helped take crucial wickets in the Vitality Blast T20 campaign. With 13 wickets to his name this month, he’s shown he is a force to be reckoned with. Mo set up his teammates with 11 catches this month, and has bowled two opposition players out.
Jordan Cox
Unsurprisingly, Cox has made this list. It seems that even after his 139* against Hampshire, Jordan decided he had another century in his belt for July, making 132 in the first innings against Sussex in the championship match. His wicket keeping skills have also been on show this month, taking key catches and stopping runs being made.
Paul Walter
Walter has impressed again with his batting this month. Hitting two half-centuries against Surrey and Kent (55 and 52 respectively). Not only that, he has been on the end of some brilliant catches to help the team finish the opposition’s innings earlier.
Eva Gray
Gray has been on fire with her wicket taking this month! There hasn’t been a game where Gray hasn’t taken a wicket. Her best figures came from the home game against The Blaze where she went 4-18 bowling out three of her opponents and setting up a catch for Griffith.
Jodi Grewcock
Although missing the first two matches of the month due to international duty, Grewcock has impressed in all aspects of the game. Jodi has hit one of the biggest run totals this month with 45 runs against Somerset. Grewcock has also taken catches in multiple matches on top of her own wickets against The Blaze.
Maddie Penna
A consistent batter, Penna has been a key batter in the squad. With well over 100 runs this month, Maddie is one of our top run scorers this month, contributing massively to our top order batting. In addition to this, Maddie has taken key wickets such as setting up two stumpings.
