IND vs ENG: The Anderson-Tendulcher Trophy is alive as of now, courtesy of Shubman Gill's India. England, who take pride in the infamous 'Bazball', succumbed to their own plan as they failed to chase a monumental 608 runs against India in the second Test match of the India vs England Test series. This was India's first-ever win at the iconic Edgbaston Stadium, and they registered this monumental feat in a dominant fashion. Head Coach Gautam Gambhir, skipper Shubman Gill, and other stakeholders of the Indian Test team did take a huge gamble by resting Jasprit Bumrah despite being 0-1 down in the series.

Akash Deep and Mohammed Siraj rose to the occasion and broke England's back in both innings, forcing them to make unwanted errors in the Edgbaston Test. This is also India's biggest overseas win. India defeated England by a mammoth 336 runs, and this will give them confidence for the Lord's Test.

Whenever the Barmy Army posts something related to the Indian cricket team, the fans are always quick to react.
