Picture Credit: England cricket New Delhi: The legendary Indian cricket Sunil Gavascar expressed strong reservations about the naming series of five matches between India and England as Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy. Gavascar argued that the name Sachin Tendulkar should appear in front of James Anderson and quote Tendulka’s seniority and extremely better achievements in the international cricket.Gavascar wrote in his column in half of the day and refused to justify that the names were ordered alphabetically and especially the goal for cricket council in England and Wales (ECB) for their decision.“The ECB is fully entitled to call a series for any name they choose, but for most, if not all, Indian cricket lovers, it is appalling to know that Anderson’s name comes first.Former Captain India continued by underlining the differences in success between two cricket icons.“Anderson is the third in the list of berat beta in the test cricket and its record is nowhere as good as Tendulkar in a one -day cricket. Tendulkar is also part of the World Cup winner that Anderson was not. Jimmy Anderson was an amazing pitch, but mainly in English He is how good, like the one, how he is, how good he is, like he is, “he added.Gavascar also called on Indian fans and media to refer to a series as a tendulkar-andrson Trophy, and overturned the current order to reflect what they believe is more appropriate to recognize.

In the same column, Gavascar offered proposals on the Pataudi Excellence Medal, which is currently awarded to the team’s captain of the winning series. He questioned the logic behind this structure.“Why the captain and what if the series was drawn? That is why it would be better to have a Patudi medal for a match for each test, culminated in the Pataudi trophy for the players of the series. In this way they remember Pataudi after each test and after the series is completed in England,” Gavascar said.
