The captain of the winning team in the upcoming India-England test series will receive the Pataudi medal for perfection, an individual tribute established to maintain the legacy of the Pataudi. This comes after the traditional Pataudi trophy was renamed as a tendulkar-andrson trophy before a series of five games.
The decision to rename the trophy He was a cricket council in England and Wales (ECB) to appreciate the two largest characters of the test cricket-sachin tendulkar, a front running shooter in format, and James Anderson, the highest tracksuits of the goal. This step, however, has taken concern about the omission of the name Pataudi, which has long been associated with the history of this rivalry. Tendulkar personally addressed the ECB and urged the legacy of the Pataudi to remain part of the competition. ICC chairman Jay Shah supported this initiative and played a key role in the completion of the inclusion of the medal consultations with cricket councils and the Pataudi family.
“When this happened, Sachin addressed the ECB and said that the name of the Pataudi should remain part of the rivalry of India-England. Mr. Jay Shah was involved in the discussion. ECB agreed and decided to submit the medal to the winning captain.”
TROFIE Tendulkar-andrson was prepared to perform on June 14, But in the end it was overparted Due to the recent Ahmedabad aircraft crash.
The Pataudi family has a rich cricket heritage that connects both nations. Iftikhar Ali Khan Pataudi uniquely represented England and India, while his son Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi Captain India in 40 tests and led the team to the first victory in the overseas series in New Zealand in 1967.
India and England are about to face five matches in Leeds in the test series. It is expected that the formal revelation of the trophy tendulkar-andrson will take place on 19 June. The Pataudi Medal will be awarded at the end of the series and will add a new layer of individual prestige to this historical rivalry.
