Team India Women’s (IND-W) last assignment under Harmanpreet Kaur in the year 2024, is the ongoing three-match ODI series against West Indies (WI-W). This year has been a mixed bag for the Women in Blue, with some memorable achievements and a T20 World Cup debacle.

Notably, they played one Test, 11 ODIs, and 23 T20Is in 2024. India won the solitary Test against South Africa. Meanwhile, they won six ODIs and 15 T20Is in the year. However, the Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 campaign in the UAE will hurt them the most. Considered one of the favourites heading into the tournament, India failed to progress beyond the first round.

However, some impressive performances from India Women batters garnered considerable praise from the cricket fraternity.

Here are 3 Indian women cricketers who scored 50+ in all three formats in 2024:
