2025 Anderson–Tendulkar Trophy

The Anderson–Tendulkar Trophy is awarded to the winner of each Test cricket series between England and India.[1] The trophy was introduced in 2025 and is named in honour of England’s former fast bowler James Anderson and India’s former batter Sachin Tendulkar.[2]

The series forms part of the ICC Future Tours Programme. The gap between tours may vary depending on scheduling. To claim the Anderson–Tendulkar Trophy, a team must win the series; if the series is drawn, the side holding the trophy from the previous series retains it.

The Anderson–Tendulkar Trophy replaced the Pataudi Trophy, which was contested for series played in England between 2007 and 2025. To continue to honour the leagcy of Pataudis, the winning captain of the trophy would be presented the Pataudi trophy, an idea championed by Sachin Tendulkar[3] - this also helps address the criticism against the renaming of the trophy.
