Indian cricket team in England in 2025
Updated: 12/11/2025, 1:03:33 PM Wikipedia source
The India cricket team toured England from June to August 2025 to play the England cricket team. The tour consisted of five Test matches. The series formed part of the 2025–2027 ICC World Test Championship. In August 2024, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) confirmed the fixtures for the tour, as a part of the 2025 home international season. The Anderson–Tendulkar Trophy, honouring James Anderson and Sachin Tendulkar, was awarded to the winner of the series. Initiated by Sachin Tendulkar, with the support of the BCCI and ECB, the Pataudi Medal of Excellence was a newly introduced award for the winning captain of the Test series.
