On 25 June 1932, India started its journey in international Cricket as a Test-playing nation, making its debut against England at Lord's. The series is fought over two trophies: 

Anthony de Mello Trophy:
This trophy was awarded for the Test series played between India and England when the series is held in India.
 
Pataudi Trophy:
This trophy was awarded when the Test series between India and England is played in England.
 
In June 2025, the ECB and BCCI decided to award the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy to the winning team.
 
 
1980 IND v ENG Jubilee

Ian Botham delivered a remarkable all-round performance in the Golden Jubilee Test between India and England at Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium. England led by Mike Brearley romped home by 10 wickets, dampening BCCI's 50th year Jubilee celebrations.

England were reduced to 58 for 5, unable to cope against a moving ball. Botham batted for two hours 26 minutes to smash 114. He added 171 for the sixth wicket with Bob Taylor (43). When the partnership was only 85, Taylor was given out caught behind. Viswanath recalled Taylor.
