The year 2024 is yet another important one as far as Test cricket is concerned. Though it will be the T20 World Cup year with the 2024 edition to be played in the Caribbean and USA, top Test teams around the world will compete for the 3rd WTC cycle apart. We will also witness non-WTC sides like Afghanistan, Ireland, and Zimbabwe playing red-ball cricket.
The major highlights of the year will be England’s tour of India and then the Men in Blue’s Test tour down under to Australia. So, there will be plenty happening across the globe when it comes to the traditional format of the game.
