England-India Test Series Renamed As Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy
Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi: The iconic rivalry between India and England will now be played for the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy, named in honour of two of the game's greatest legends—James Anderson and Sachin Tendulkar.
This new identity has been decided by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) ahead of the upcoming World Test Championship (WTC) final.
According to ESPNCricinfo, the trophy will be officially unveiled by Tendulkar and Anderson themselves at Lord’s during the WTC final, which begins on June 11. The move comes as both nations prepare to begin the new WTC cycle with a five-Test series starting June 20 at Headingley, Leeds.
