NEW DELHI: Ace Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah<\/a> had a phenomenal 2024, cementing his status as the standout bowler in Test cricket globally. Finishing the year with a staggering 71 wickets from 13 Tests, Bumrah not only topped the charts for India but also emerged as the world\u2019s most successful bowler by a significant margin.
Bumrah\u2019s remarkable haul came at an exceptional average of 14.92, with his best figures being 6\/45 against England earlier in the year. His consistency was underscored by five five-wicket hauls and a stellar strike rate of 30.1, while conceding runs at just 2.96 per over.
The Indian pacer was leagues ahead of his peers, with England\u2019s Gus Atkinson being the only other bowler to breach the 50-wicket mark, finishing with 51 wickets. India\u2019s Ravindra Jadeja<\/a>, with 48 wickets from 12 Tests, was the second-highest wicket-taker for the team and ranked fourth overall. <\/p>\n
