Bumrah Wins ICC Men’s Test Cricketer Of The Year Award
World Test Championship Final: India’s fast-bowling spearhead Jasprit Bumrah has been named as the winner of the ICC Men's Test Cricketer of the Year award for 2024. Bumrah picked an astonishing 71 wickets while bowling 357 overs in 13 matches at an average of 14.92 in 2024.
Bumrah's 71 scalps in 2024 made him just the fourth India bowler to take more than 70 Test wickets in a calendar year after Ravichandran Ashwin, Anil Kumble and Kapil Dev. Those numbers were enough for him to beat competition from Sri Lanka’s Kamindu Mendis and England batting duo of Harry Brook, and Joe Root to win the prestigious award.
It was a year where Bumrah excelled in both home and away conditions, proving to be a key contributor in keeping India in contention for a spot in the 2025 World Test Championship Final, though the side fell short of making it to the title clash.
