Sports, Cricket Web Stories: ICC ODI Men's Team of the Year for 2024 ft Shaheen Shah Afridi, Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Wanindu Hasaranga, Haris Rauf.

<p>Despite leading the team ranking chart in the One-Day Internationals, none of the Indian players made it to ICC&rsquo;s ODI Team of the Year 2024. Four Sri Lankan players, including their ODI captain Charith Asalanka, three Pakistanis, two from Afghanistan and one from West Indies, made it to the combined XI of the top ODI players from the past year.</p>
<p>To everyone&rsquo;s surprise, no player from the top-ranked sides, including Australia, India, England, New Zealand and South Africa, made the cut.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, after a super successful 2023, where India won the Asia Cup in Sri Lanka and made it to the final of the home ODI World Cup, the Men in Blue played just three ODIs last year, losing two to Sri Lanka, conceding the bilateral series for the first time in 27 years; as a result, none could find a place.</p>
<h2>Openers and middle order &ndash;</h2>
<p>Rookie Pakistan opener Saim Ayub got rewarded for his impressive year with the bat, wherein he returned 515 runs from nine outings, averaging 64.37 and striking at over 100 (105.53). In 2024, Ayub scored two ODI hundreds and a fifty. Afghanistan opener Rahmanullah Gurbaz accompanies him at the top, having registered almost similar runs (531) from 11 matches, including three centuries and two fifties.</p>

<p>Three Sri Lankan batters, a West Indian and an all-rounder from Afghanistan, completed the middle and lower orders. Opener Pathum Nissanka (who scored 210* against Afghanistan in an ODI in February last year) bats at number three (on ICC's list), with keeper-batter Kusal Mendis and Asalanka taking the number four and fifth spots respectively.</p>
<p>While Mendis had a fantastic 2024, scoring 742 runs from 17 matches, the left-handed Asalanka averaged over 50 (50.2) playing in the middle overs, besides scoring 605 runs in 16 outings.</p>
<p>However, the breakthrough inclusion is of West Indies batter Sherfane Rutherford, who had a stellar 2024. The left-handed batter scored 425 runs, averaging a whopping 106 and striking at 120.1. Azmatullah Omarzai comes in at number seven for having scored 417 runs and picking 17 wickets across 12 ODIs in the past year.</p>
<h2>The bowlers</h2>
<p>Of the four bowlers, two are from Pakistan and one each from Afghanistan and Sri Lanka.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The two pacers picked are Shaheen Afridi and Haris Rauf, who picked 15 and 13 wickets, respectively. While Shaheen bagged those at a bowling average of 17.6, Rauf&rsquo;s read 22.4.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The two remaining bowlers are the spinners, Wanindu Hasaranga from Sri Lanka and Allah Ghazanfar from Afghanistan. Hasaranga was perhaps the best bowler of the year, picking 26 wickets from 10 matches, averaging just 15.6, while teenager Ghazanfar had a better bowling average of 13.57, bagging 21 wickets from 11 games.</p>

No Indian in ICC’s ODI Team of the Year 2024; 3 Afghanistan players included

<p>The International Cricket Council (ICC) on Tuesday (Jan 23) released the ODI Team of the Year, which features six Indian players despite the team losing the World Cup against Australia a few months back. The team is captained by Rohit Sharma and features Virat Kohli, Shubman Gill as well as the pace duo of Mohammed Shami and Mohammed Siraj and chinaman Kuldeep Yadav.</p>

<p>Sharma amassed 1255 runs at an average of 52 in 2023 and led India brilliantly to the final of the ultimate tournament. His opening partner, Gill, finished the year sa the highest run-getter, smashing 1584 runs that included a double hundred against New Zealand.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Kohli, India's mainstay in the format for several years, had another consistent run, scoring 1377 runs which included the Player of the Tournament award in the World Cup.</p>

<p>As for the bowlers, Shami was the standout, performing strongly in the quadrennial tournament and nearly pushing India over the victory shores.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Apart from the Indian players, the list gives space to World Cup winners with Australia - Travis Head and Adam Zampa. Both players were pivotal in helping Australia win its sixth World Cup title.</p>

<p>While Head joined the team midway into the tournament, he smashed a half-century and claimed two wickets in a Player of the Match performance in the World Cup semi-final victory over South Africa and then exceeded that effort when he scored an unbelievable 137 against India in the decider to help Australia lift the trophy.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>Meanwhile, Zampa, the lone specialist spinner in the Australian team managed to exploit the subcontinent conditions to full effect and finished the World Cup as the second-highest wicket-taker.&nbsp;</p>

ICC ODI Team of the Year revealed: 6 Indians make the cut despite World Cup loss

<p>The International Cricket Council (ICC), on Thursday (January 20), announced the Men's ODI team of 2021. Pakistan's Babar Azam has been named as the captain of the line-up, which includes no player from India, England and Australia. On Wednesday, the ICC had also shared the Men's T20I team of 2021, which didn't comprise a single Indian and had Babar as the captain.</p>

<p>Talking about the ODI XI, Ireland's Paul Stirling made the cut. He ended the calendar year with&nbsp;885 runs including 3 hundreds. South Africa's Janneman Malan was named the second opener with Babar at No. 3&nbsp;whereas Fakhar Zaman took the No. 4 spot. The rest of the middle-order comprises Rassie van der Dussen, who played a match-winning 129* versus India in the first ODI on Wednesday (January 19), along with Bangladeshi pair Shakib Al Hasan and Mushfiqur Rahim. Apart from Shakib, Sri Lanka's Wanindu Hasaranga and Ireland's Simi Singh are the two all-rounders whereas Mustafizur Rahman and Dushmantha Chameera were the two pacers included.</p>

<p>Babar had a great run in 2021, being named as the white-ball captain altogether by the ICC. Under Babar, Pakistan won the ODI series in South Africa and also reached the semi-finals of the 2021 T20 World Cup, held in the UAE.</p>

<p>The list had no mention of some of the big-ticket players, such as Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, Shikhar Dhawan, Jos Buttler, David Warner, Jasprit Bumrah, Pat Cummins, etc. For the unversed, this was the first time since 2004 that no Indian was named in the Men's ODI Team of the Year.&nbsp;</p>

<p>While no Indian featured in the team, it is to be noted that the senior men's team played only a handful of ODIs in 2021 (same goes for other big teams as well). India played six ODIs -- winning four of them -- with many regulars missing the 50-over leg versus Sri Lanka, in the island nation, in mid-2021.</p>
