The top contender for the ICC Test Cricketer of the Year is England National Cricket Team batter Joe Root. The premier batter didn't put a foot wrong in Tests this year as he became the leading run-getter for his team in the longest format of the game along with the leading century hitter for the team.
Joe Root also hit Test hundreds to go alongside five half-centuries. His memorable performance came during the Test against the Pakistan National Cricket Team in Multan. The premier batter scored his career-best score of 262, and it was his sixth double hundred, joining the likes of Ricky Ponting and Sachin Tendulkar in the most number of double tons.
Jasprit Bumrah is the second nominee for the ICC Test Cricketer of the Year
Jasprit Bumrah picked 71 wickets from 13 Tests at an average of 14.92, which speaks a lot about his effort. He ended 2024 as the leading wicket-taker in Tests, and with the kind of impact he made, it won't be a surprise if he ends up winning the ICC Test Cricketer of the Year 2024.

Harry Brook is the fourth name on the list of the ICC Test Cricketer of the Year. The England National Cricket Team batter bailed his team out of trouble almost all the time in 2024. In the 12 games that he played, he scored 1100 runs at an average of 55.
