Team India has completed its stint for the calendar year of 2022. It had a decent performance throughout the year across formats. Although it did not succeed in the limited-overs sector, missing out on a couple of major titles, it did have acceptable performance in the Test circuit. It remains in the race for the ICC World Test Championship 2021-23 final, set to be held next year, with just a series of four Tests against Australia at home. As India has managed to finish 2022 on a high, especially in the longest game format, we look back at its performance in this format and present its best performers and performances.
