Jaspreet Bumrah will get the biggest award in cricket! Star pacer got this opportunity for the first time.

Team India's fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah, who has been wreaking havoc with his deadly bowling in Australia, has ended the year in a great way. Bumrah took 5 wickets in the second innings of the Melbourne Test. Not only in this test but this whole year, Bumrah has troubled the batsmen with his stormy balls on every front. The result of this brilliant performance is that Bumrah has been nominated by the ICC for the biggest award. The star pacer has been shortlisted for the Sir Garfield Sobers Trophy, which is given to the best cricketer of the year. With this, he has also achieved a special achievement.

After being a Test cricketer, he was also nominated for the Sobers Trophy.

Bumrah has wreaked havoc with his performance in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. After Perth, Adelaide, and Brisbane, he troubled the Australian batsmen in Melbourne as well. Although his performance could not save Team India from defeat, the star bowler has impressed the whole world with his excellent performance. While Team India lost, ICC has included Bumrah among the contenders for the Cricketer of the Year award. Apart from this, Bumrah has also been shortlisted for Test Cricketer of the Year.

This was Bumrah's performance this year.

Bumrah participated only in Test and T20 format matches this year and with his bowling, Team India got many memorable victories. He made Team India the champion by taking the highest 15 wickets in the T20 World Cup 2024. He was also named the Player of the Tournament. At the same time, in Test cricket, the batsmen had no answer to his balls against England, Bangladesh, New Zealand, and now Australia. Bumrah ended the year with 71 wickets in just 13 Tests, which is the highest among all bowlers this year. His average was also 14.92, which has been the best in the history of this game.

Will you be able to win the biggest award?

In such a situation, Bumrah is the biggest contender to win this award. He is the first Indian fast bowler to be nominated for this award. However, the players he is competing with are also no less. This includes England's legendary batsman Joe Root, who scored the most runs this year in 17 Tests at an average of 55. Australia's explosive batsman Travis Head is also in the race. The left-handed batsman scored 608 runs in 9 Tests at an average of 40 and 539 runs in 15 T20 Internationals at a strike rate of 178. Apart from him, England's young batsman Harry Brook is also a contender, who scored 1100 runs in 12 Tests this year at an average of 55.
