The Indian men’s cricket team has begun their new era with a 2-2 draw in a five-match Test series against England. Dubbed as the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy, it kicked off India’s 2025–2027 ICC World Test Championship cycle. Following their dominant 4-1 victory over England at home in 2024, England almost won the series but Mohammed Siraj’s fiery spell helped India win by just 6 runs to draw the series level 2-2. This was India’s first Test series since two stalwarts Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli retired.
