Indian fast bowler Arshdeep Singh has been named the ICC Men's T20I Cricketer of the Year for 2024, following his remarkable performance of taking 36 wickets in 18 matches and playing a pivotal role in India's T20 World Cup victory.
In an extraordinary showcase of skill and determination, pitchers Chris Sale of the Atlanta Braves and Tarik Skubal of the Detroit Tigers have both clinched the 2024 Cy Young Awards, honoring the best pitchers in Major League Baseball. Sale, at age 35, dominated the National League with an 18-3 record and a 2.38 ERA, while Skubal, celebrating his 28th birthday, led the American League with an 18-4 record and 2.39 ERA. Both players' achievements mark a historic moment, with each being the first left-handed pitchers in nearly six decades to win the award in their respective leagues in the same season. Their success stories are underscored by triumphant comebacks from previous injuries, making their recognition a testament to resilience and excellence on the mound.
