The year 2024 has been nothing short of a rollercoaster for India across formats. From putting an end to the ICC trophy drought to getting whitewashed at home in a three match Test series for the first time ever, this year had it all.
While we saw the rise of some youngsters like Dhruv Jurel, Sarfaraz Khan and Nitish Kumar Reddy rising through the ranks and getting fast-tracked into the side, we also saw the heroes of yesteryears in Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma struggle to get going.

India played a total of 15 Test matches in the 2024 calendar year while starting it with a fantastic away win against South Africa in Cape Town and ending it with a heartbreaking loss in the Boxing Day Test of the Border Gavaskar Trophy.
India won 8 matches, lost 6 and drew 1 Test in the whole year.
