3 most searched Indian cricketers on Google in 2024

1. Hardik Pandya

Hardik Pandya had a topsy-turvy year, where he had to deal with success as well as failure. Thankfully for him, he could turn failure into success in quick time. The Baroda all-rounder returned to Mumbai Indians ahead of IPL 2024 and subsequently replaced Rohit Sharma as the captain. This irked fans as they felt that the franchise didn't show much respect to Rohit, who led them to five titles. Hardik was brutally trolled and he failed to perform with bat and ball during the cash-rich league. Mumbai Indians finished last on the points table to add to the woes of the Choryasi-born.

However, the 31-year-old managed to turn things around for himself by putting in a stellar shift during India's T20 World Cup-winning campaign. Hardik made vital contributions with bat and ball and helped India end their ICC title drought after an agonising wait of 11 years.
