In 2024, Indian cricket is expected to have another exciting year as the men’s and women’s teams aim to maintain the momentum they built up in the previous year. While Harmanpreet Kaur and company ended the year on a record-breaking note as they defeated Australia and England in one-off Test matches at home, the Rohit Sharma-led team had advanced to the ICC trophy final for the first time in eight years after winning ten straight games to make the summit clash in the ODI World Cup.
With the respective T20 World Cup competitions coming up, both the men’s and women’s teams will have the opportunity to end India’s long-standing drought of an ICC trophy among the numerous tours and contests on home soil. When MS Dhoni led the team to the Champions Trophy in England in 2013, it was the last time the country had hoisted an ICC trophy.
January will be a hectic month for the Test regulars, thus the Indian men’s squad will be hoping to build towards another successful run in the World Test Championship. India will play England in a five-match encounter as their first home assignment of the current WTC cycle, in addition to trying to salvage the existing South Africa Test series, in which they are 0-1 down following a humbling innings loss in Centurion last week. India’s last practice match before the T20 World Cup in June will be a crucial T20I series against Afghanistan at home, which will take place before the match vs England. The Indian Premier League 2024, which will take place in March and May, will fall in between the two.
Alternatively, the Indian women’s cricket team will play a three-match T20I series after starting the year 0-2 down in the ODI series at home. The Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2024 in February and March will come after this. After touring Australia and playing a home match against the West Indies to close the year, the Women in Blue will compete in the T20 World Cup in Bangladesh in September.
