In 2021, The award was succeeded by ICC T20I Player of the Year, which is given to a player based on his performance in the whole year. This was from 2008 to 2019, when T20Is weren't usually played frequently enough to have a "Player of the Year" award for this format.

Past methodology
The judging/voting period was originally from 1 August of the current year to 31 July of the next year. It then underwent two changes and used to take place between September of the current year and September of the next year.
The ICC Selection Committee comprised eminent former players (one chairman, four other members) who selected the finalists for the Cricketer of the Year, Test Player of the Year, ODI Player of the Year and the Emerging Player of the Year, as well as the final ICC Test Team of the Year and ICC ODI Team of the Year.

In the event of a tie in the voting, awards are shared.
