The India-England Test series will now be contested for the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy, replacing the Pataudi Trophy, a decision that initially drew criticism. Sachin Tendulkar, keen to honor the Pataudi legacy, proposed the Pataudi Medal of Excellence for the winning captain.

Shubman Gill will captain India in the upcoming Test series against England. He values winning this series more than an IPL title. Gill emphasizes the importance of Test cricket and building a legacy. He acknowledges the rarity of captaining in England. The series is crucial for defining his captaincy. All eyes are on Gill as he leads a new era.

On the eve of his first Test as India captain, Shubman Gill immersed himself in a marathon net session at Headingley, showcasing sharp focus on his batting. Now slotted at No. 4, Gill aims to assert himself as a dependable run-scorer in the post-Kohli era. While captaincy talk dominates, Gill remains clear: batting form is key to leading well.
