How was the Pataudi Trophy name?
The bilateral series between India and England was named in the Pataudi Trophy 2007. MCC did this in honor of the Pataudi family when it was 75 years of Indian cricket. Let us tell you that Iftikhar Ali Khan Pataudi was the only cricketer who represented both India and England. His son Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi was also the captain of the Indian team and used to play in England when he studied. From this year, ECB wanted to change the name of this series to Anderson-Tendulkar trophy. This information was also given to the Pataudi family, although they were also not happy with this decision.
