Hollie Armitage and Heather Graham nominated for PCA Player of the Month for July

Durham’s Hollie Armitage and Heather Graham have been nominated for PCA Player of the Month in July.

The top four men’s and women’s domestic players have been revealed using the PCA’s Most Valuable Player Rankings, powered by OFX, with two prizes to be decided through your votes and the MVP.

The eight highest performing players in the domestic game have been revealed using the PCA’s Most Valuable Player Rankings, powered by OFX, with two accolades to be awarded through the MVP and your votes.

In 2026 so far, winners have included Craig Overton, Martin Andersson Jodi Grewcock, Mady Villiers and Maia Bouchier. Incredibly Overton, with two wins to his name already, is nominated again, meaning he has been nominated in the Player of the Month vote in April, May, June and July, further emphasising his dominant summer.

With 274 runs at an average of 34.25 and 12 fielding points, Armitage produced some match winning performances for her side.

Against Lancashire, her unbeaten innings of 44 off 33 balls with seven fours earnt her 27.32 points and the Match MVP in a seven-wicket win for Durham. The 29-year-old also smashed an unbeaten 69 off 47 balls against The Blaze in the Blast.

Graham scored 128 runs, averaging 21.3 and took 12 wickets at 20.67 a-piece during July playing for Durham and Welsh Fire.

The 29-year-old Australian all-rounder produced a notable performance against Essex scoring 36 off just 23 balls to go with figures of 1-31 in a 12-run loss at Chester-le-Street. She also impressed in The Hundred taking remarkable figures of 4-19 against Southern Brave.

The PCA’s Most Valuable Player Rankings, powered by OFX, picks out the game’s top performers across every single fixture. This then forms the rankings for each competition, as well as an overall table which is how the top four are selected. The MVP takes into account batting, bowling and fielding contributions and match defining achievements using a unique live algorithm developed by CricViz.

The PCA Player of the Month will be decided by a 50:50 split between the PCA MVP Rankings and the public vote on thepca.co.uk – the poll will close on Wednesday 5 August at 10pm.
