The Tendulkar–Anderson Trophy, formerly known as the Pataudi Trophy, is given to the winner of each Test cricket series between England and India when matches happen in England. It was designed and made by Jocelyn Burton. The trophy was first awarded in 2007 to mark 75 years since the two teams played their first Test match in 1932. India won the first Pataudi Trophy series in England in 2007. The trophy is named after India’s former batsman Sachin Tendulkar and England’s former fast bowler James Anderson.
The series follow the International Cricket Council’s future tours programme. The gap between tours can change. A team must win a series to hold the Tendulkar–Anderson Trophy. If the series ends in a draw, the team that already holds the Trophy keeps it.
