All-rounder Tryon wins ICC Women's Player of the Month award for May 2025
New Delhi: South Africa all-rounder Chloe Tryon has been adjudged as the winner of the International Cricket Council (ICC) Women's Player of the Month award for May 2025. Chloe beat out stiff competition from West Indies skipper Hayley Matthews and India batter Jemimah Rodrigues to secure the monthly award. Though South Africa didn't enter the final of the ODI tri-series in Sri Lanka, Chloe had a productive month. Though South Africa had a 23-run loss to eventual champions India, Chloe was in fine nick to hit 67 off 43 balls, comprising four boundaries and five sixes, apart from recording figures of 1-46 and taking the prized wicket of Smriti Mandhana. But Chloe saved her best for last as she was at her dominant best for South Africa in their final tri-series game against hosts Sri Lanka. Batting first, Chloe smashed 74 off 51 deliveries, including four fours and five sixes, as South Africa posted a huge 315. Chloe would follow it up by picking her maiden five-wicket-haul – 5-34 off her eight overs as she tore through the Sri Lanka batting order, including taking a stunning hat-trick and guiding South Africa to a 76-run victory at the R. Premadasa International Cricket Stadium in Colombo. 'I am really happy with my five-wicket effort and the hat-trick. I was pretty tired most of the time, but I'm happy to have achieved that. You always want to add those milestones to your memories as a cricketer.' 'I'm glad I finally got to tick that off my list. It's still a bit of a blur, to be honest. I think the team carried me throughout that day. I was a little bit sick, so that didn't really help much. But everything came together, and I'm just really happy that I could perform and help the team win,' said Chloe in an ICC statement. The all-rounder is now aiming to build on a consistent set of performances from Sri Lanka when South Africa go on a white-ball tour of the West Indies, starting later this month, and later play the 2025 ODI World Cup in India. 'I probably didn't expect this award, but I see it as a great achievement. I've been trying to find consistency for a while, so I'm happy that it finally came together in Sri Lanka. Hopefully, I can build on those performances and help the team through the big year ahead. We've got a World Cup at the end of the year, so I'm hoping to continue being consistent for the team,' she concluded.

I am sure that with the current lot of players, UAE cricket will continue to thrive and prosper. I would also want to thank the Emirates Cricket Board for their support and backing.

Abrahams urges Proteas Women to show boldness, bravery on West Indies tour

Photo: SRI LANKA CRICKET Image: Sri Lanka Cricket THE Proteas Women won just a single match on the recent tour of Sri Lanka, having been beaten twice by India Women and once by the hosts. However, from the batting point of view, the South Africans made a statement, producing two 300-plus totals during the trip. The side registered five half-centuries and two centuries, with Tazmin Brits, Chloe Tryon and Annerie Dercksen the notable stars with bat in hand. Moreover, the side introduced two young batting prospects, Karabo Meso and Miané Smit, who have been making rounds with big runs in domestic and Under-19 cricket. 'I reflect quite positively on the Sri Lanka tour in terms of posting those 300-plus scores,' Proteas Women batting coach Baakier Abrahams told Independent Media. 'I think that's a third 300-plus score in the last 12 months, and to me it shows that the work that the ladies have been putting in over the last 12 months is coming to fruition in terms of our style of play. 'With the skill set development, we were able to do that over long periods of time, and then also our mindset of wanting to play a positive brand of cricket, getting to those totals. 'Our top-order didn't really fire, but we were still capable of doing that. 'So, it shows that there's still a lot more in the tank that we can achieve, and we're going to be working quite hard to be putting more of those totals up.' While senior player Chloe Tryon didn't reach the three-figure mark in Sri Lanka, she certainly stepped up her game with the bat, scoring two half-centuries and leading the team in one game when captain Laura Wolvaardt wasn't available for selection. 'Looking over her career and the number of games played versus the number of not-outs, I felt she may have left a couple of not-outs out there where she could have won more games for South Africa,' Abrahams said. 'So, our conversations have been about how many more times can we get her to finish games not-out for South Africa. 'I can't give her enough praise that she's done it in terms of being not-out in Sri Lanka, and playing some impactful knocks for us as one of the senior players in those situations for the benefit of the team. 'So, that's the challenge that I laid in front of her, and she accepted it and she stepped up to it, so she's got to take a lot of credit for how she went about it. 'With Laura being ill in Sri Lanka and Tryon stepping up into the captaincy role, she did it with good authority. So, she did well overall.' The Proteas Women have the West Indies tour on the horizon, and Abrahams has his expectations for the batting group. The batting coach wants to see bravery and boldness. 'What I want to see is braveness and boldness implemented. I want us to make a play early rather than being reactive,' said Abrahams. 'That is the one thing we've been stressing with the ladies is to back themselves that they've developed the skill and trained it sufficiently that regardless of the conditions, the game situation and whatever is put in front of them, that they do still take a positive option in whatever way it looks like to each individual. 'In that way, we then use all our resources, because we do bat quite deep, and that allows us to play in a responsible way, but also in an exciting way. 'So, that's really what we want to see out of the West Indies tour, an improvement on what we started in Sri Lanka.'

Chloe Tryon shares her journey with Proteas Women as they prepare for World Cup
Chloe Tryon Proteas left-arm spinner Chloe Tryon in action. Photo: Sri Lanka Cricket Image: Sri Lanka Cricket Proteas Women all-rounder Chloe Tryon said the recent Tri-Series tournament in Sri Lanka, which they were knocked out of, was one of her hardest tours to date. The Proteas faced off against India and Sri Lanka in four matches, three of which they lost, before winning their last game. The experienced all-rounder said they left everything out on the field during the last game against Sri Lanka, and ended up taking away some valuable pointers for the World Cup in India in September and October. Managing their energy and effort in the heat and humidity that sub-continent cricket offers was one of the most vital takeaways from the tour, Tryon explained. Hot and humid, low and slow are the conditions teams are expected to face in places like India and Sri Lanka, and the recent tour was no different. The South Africans had to adjust playing close to 40 overs of spin in a match, which was the case in all but three games by the looks of things. 'I don't think we expected those conditions. Hot and sticky and humid, I think it was a bit hard to adjust in the beginning,' Tryon said. 'But I think we rose to the occasion and handled that aspect really well. 'With regards to the wicket, there was barely any movement, and it forced us to try and find ways to make a breakthrough. 'So, we learned how to fight through those dead spots and move forward. 'It was probably one of my hardest tours, and I am sure some of the other girls can relate to that. 'We showed resilience as a team to push through and get the win at the end.' Like the team, Tryon started off her tour slowly, but finished on a high note, scoring 74 runs and taking five wickets, including a hat-trick, in the last match against Sri Lanka, where they won by 76 runs. Her partnership with Annerie Dercksen (104 off 84 balls) throughout the middle and tail-end of the South African innings is what helped push the Proteas over 300, creating a tough ask for the Sri Lankans. But it wasn't all guts and glory, and required some tactical batting on Tryon's part – tact and precision that she's picked up along the way through the many series and countries she's played cricket in. Proteas celebrate Chloe Tryon wicket Chloe Tryon takes a wicket against Sri Lanka in the final match of the tri-series in Columbo. Image: SLC 'From the moment I walked in, it was about giving her the strike and just spending in the middle,' Tryon said. 'We had to work in different stages. First it looked like we were chasing 270, but the longer we stayed in, the more we tried to attack. 'I said if we made it to the 43rd over, then we could start attacking from both sides and look at 300-plus. 'I think I've played a lot of international cricket and understand that when someone is hitting big on one end, you don't necessarily need to go out and do the same. 'Dercksen was firing at that moment, and I just let her do her thing while I took my time to get a feel for the ball. 'Being in that moment, noticing the moment and staying calm is what you have to do from the other end,' the Durbanite said. Tryon scored 18 against India in the opening game, 35 against Sri Lanka and then hit her first half-century of the tour with her 67 against India in their third match. 'Starting off with those 30-odd runs in the opening games, when we were in a position to win, I had to kind of step back and look at the way I played. 'And then to come back and have two better scores after that just helped me, so I think we can take a lot of positives out of that. Chloe Tryon earns player of the match award against Sri Lanka Chloe Tryon took the player of the match award against Sri Lanka for her 76 runs and 5 wicket haul. Image: SLC 'We had these flashes of good, but as a collective, I think we were disappointed because we didn't play our best. But these are building blocks to the World Cup. We want to tick off every (box) at this point, and hopefully we can improve in the next one,' Tryon explained. In a couple weeks, the Proteas Women squad will jet off to the Caribbean, where they play the West Indies in a series of ODI and T20 matches. Unlike Sri Lanka, though, the West Indies will provide the fast bowlers with some assistance, but the ambient conditions are close to the sub-continent, with hot and humid weather expected.
