Team India ended a middling 2023 on a poor note losing the final Test of the year as South Africa gave them a humbling by an innings and 32 runs. However, before the year was over, the visitors got some good news in the form of their all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja's fitness.
Australia took an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match Test series against Pakistan with a 79-run win in the Boxing Day Test at the MCG. While Pakistan gave a tough fight, it wasn't to be for Shan Masood's men as Pat Cummins registered his second 10-wicket haul.
Skipper Pat Cummins registered figures of 10/97 as Australia clinched the three-match Test series against Pakistan taking an unassailable 2-0 lead with a 79-run win at MCG. Pakistan had their moments but couldn't hold onto them and if you give Australia a sniff, they won't let you breathe.
Barring the heartbreaking loss that came at the hands of Australia in the ODI World Cup final at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, India performed remarkably well in the 50-overs format in 2023.
If a defeat by an innings and 32 runs wasn't enough, the Indian team was slapped with a fine and penalty for maintaining a slow over-rate in the first Test against South Africa. India who slipped to fifth position in the World Test Championship standings after the loss, slipped even further.
Mohammed Shami's participation in the two-match Test series was subject to fitness. The veteran pacer wasn't cleared by the BCCI's medical team and hence didn't travel to the Rainbow Nation to feature in the red-ball series.
With a win in the first Test of the series at the SuperSport Park in Centurion, South Africa have kept their spotless Test record against India at home intact. Dean Elgar has been announced to lead the team in the 2nd Test at Newlands in Cape Town.
Emerging bowling allrounder, Mahedi Hasan, was awarded the Player of the Match (POTM) in the first T20I at McLean Park for his remarkable performance of 2/14 with the ball and scoring 19* off 16 deliveries.
Southpaw Phoebe Litchfield was awarded the Player of the Match (POTM) for playing a match-winning knock of 78 runs off 89 balls at a strike rate of 87.64. Her knock included eight fours and a maximum.
