Bumrah Nominated For ICC Men’s Test Cricketer Of The Year Award
Test Bowling Rankings: India’s fast-bowling spearhead Jasprit Bumrah has been nominated for 2024 ICC Men’s Test Cricketer of the Year award. Apart from him, Sri Lanka all-rounder Kamindu Mendis and England batting duo of Joe Root and Harry Brook have been nominated for the prestigious honour.
Having returned to the Test arena through the Centurion Test against South Africa in 2023 after a back surgery kept him out, Bumrah dominated the bowling charts in the longer format in 2024 by picking 71 wickets in 13 Tests, the most scalps taken by a bowler this year.
Bumrah’s 71 scalps in 2024 is also the fifth most wickets taken by an Indian bowler in a Test calendar year, a list led by Kapil Dev, who picked 75 wickets in 18 matches in 1983. Be it in South Africa and Australia, or conditions back home, Bumrah was ever impressive.
