"I am really proud of my season and to finish as the leading wicket-taker in the County Championship," said the seamer, reflecting on a stellar month.
"It was a great season for me personally. Just a bit of a shame to end it with Worcestershire going down but winning the One Day Cup was an amazing feeling.
"I am really proud to finish with the most wickets. It is not something I personally set out to achieve - it was more of me trying to contribute to winning a trophy.
"So, I am glad that I have been able to do them both this summer. For next year, the aim will definitely be to take as many wickets as I possibly can and lead the Worcestershire attack back to Division One.
"It was wonderful to be part of the One Day Cup win. It felt like all the stars aligned for it to happen.
"From wearing the JB33 Foundation on the shirt to dedicating the cup to Josh Baker and even seeing his best friend Henry Cullen hitting the winning runs, it was an amazing moment for the club, the Baker family and also for the fans.
"Winning Player of the Month is a nice feeling and makes me very proud that people have followed along and supported me and Worcestershire.
"It has been a topsy-turvy year but to win the public vote and to perform well for the team throughout September was great. Hopefully more of that will follow next season."
