Anderson–Tendulkar Trophy 2025: Team India registered their maiden win at Edgbaston after 58 years and 8th attempts. They have won the 2nd test by 336 runs which is also their biggest overseas win.

2nd Test (India Vs England)
Game Date: 2nd July – 6th July 2025
Game Result: India won by 336 runs
Man Of the Match: Shubman Gill

Now I am going to share day-to-day activity of this test match with all the details, records and milestones in my way.

Day 1
England captain Ben Stokes won the toss in the 2nd Test against Team India and decided to bowl first at Edgbaston, Birmingham. Three changes for Team India and Nitish Reddy, Washington Sundar and Akash Deep is playing today in the place of Shardul Thakur, Sai Sudharsan and Jasprit Bumrah.

Team India scored 310/5 on Day 1 stumps. did exceedingly well to arrest what looked like a mini collapse at the start of the final session, but England will be the happier side at stumps. Opting to bowl, Woakes bowled one of his best new-ball spells (in terms of control) and picked up the prized scalp of KL Rahul as he bowled 4 maidens off his first 5 overs. Jaiswal and Karun Nair then reversed the pressure back on the hosts with a flurry of boundaries. However, with minutes left to lunch, Carse got rid of the latter with a short ball and neutralized what appeared like a solid opening session for India. Jaiswal looked all set to claim a well-deserved century and also engineered a crucial 66-run stand with skipper Gill for the third wicket. Perhaps due to a lack of strike (faced just 10 balls off the 6 overs before his departure) or loss in concentration at one stage, Jaiswal played a wild cut against Stokes and ended up offering a regulation catch to the keeper on 87. And when Pant joined Gill in the middle, the duo batted with great maturity until the former ran out of patience. He tried to take on Bashir and fell for the trap, holing out to long-on for 25. In the following over, Nitish shouldered arms against Woakes, only to find his stumps rattled. And then it needed the experience of Jadeja and the supremacy of Gill to avoid further damage before stumps. Gill, in particular, was very impressive with his Strokeplay. For a major part of his innings, he batted outside the crease to negate the moving ball and also took calculated risks against Bashir to keep the scorecard ticking, scripting his 7th Test ton while at it. The second new ball did challenge the edges, but runs came at a brisk pace as well, helping the visitors get past the 300-mark. England will fancy their chances with the new ball, but India will have to be wary in the first hour and would hope for one of Gill or Jadeja to go really big if they are to inch closer to the 450-mark. Skipper Shubman Gill is batting on 114* and Yashashvi Jaiswal scored 89 runs. For England, Chris Woakes picked 2 wickets.

– India have not won a Test match at Edgbaston in eight previous attampts (D1, L7). England too have lost three of the last five Tests here at what is their fortress

– Joe Root has 102 50-plus scores in Tests, one short of equalling Jacques Kallis and Ricky Ponting. Only Sachin Tendulkar (119) has more

– Ravindra Jadeja averages 78 with the ball in his last four Tests and has taken only 5 wickets in 110 overs

Day 2
Team India bowled out for huge 587 runs in their 1st innings. 13 short of 600. At 211/5, anything around 450 looked far from realistic but Shubman Gill produced one of the best knocks ever by an Indian batter in England and his innings has now put India in a position of dominance. Gill was eyeing 300 at the tea break, but a tired looking shot against Tongue brought about his downfall. Unlike last game, the lower middle order displayed great character and determination to spend some time out in the middle and that is surely a promising sign if you are an Indian fan. Plenty of tired faces in the England camp, and their batters have a massive task in hand. Can India get an early breakthrough and create some panic? Or will England Bazball their way to another huge score?. Skipper Shubman Gill scored 269 runs and Ravindra Jadeja scored 89 runs. For England, Shoaib Bashir picked 3 wickets.

England scored 77/3 in their 1st innings on day 2 stumps. They are trailing by huge 510 runs with 7 wickets in hand. What will delight India further is the way their seamers have run in on a pitch that isn’t offering all that much. There was just a bit of nip with the new ball and Akash Deep, making his way back into the team, along with Mohammed Siraj, who was unlucky at Leeds, made the most of it. Having England three down early in response to their massive 587 – the day could’ve hardly gone better for India who also held onto their catches. Could be a defining day in how the series turns out.

– Second 150-plus score by an India captain in England after Mohammad Azharuddin’s 179 at Old Trafford in 1990.

Day 3
England bowled out for 407 runs in their 1st innings. What a phase of play for India. After a mammoth 303-run stand, the 2nd new-ball does it for them. 31/5 since the new-ball was taken. Before that, it was just England and in particular Jamie Smith and Harry Brook. They plundered the bowling and showed respect when it demanded – especially in the 2nd session. This after they lost two wickets to two balls to leave them at 84/5 after Stokes went. A stunning counter-attacking stand and which brought England right back into this one. But India who looked really flat and out of ideas found a spark with the 2nd new-ball and a good delivery from Akash Deep started it off. He bowled Brook and the rest of them did not last long. Amidst all this Jamie Smith has played an outstanding knock. Highest-ever score for an England wicketkeeper-batter. Still India lead by 180 which is quite significant. The star of the Indian bowling was Siraj and well complemented by Akash Deep. The duo took all 10 wickets with the former getting a six-fer. He walks off the ground, ball-raised ala Glenn McGrath and waving it to all corners. He is met by Bumrah outside the cushions who hugs him. A real workhorse this Siraj. And never gives up. Jamie Smith scored unbeaten 184* runs and Harry Brook scored 158 runs. For Team India, Mohammed Siraj picked 6 wickets.

Team India scored 64/1 in their 2nd innings on Day 3 stumps. They have led of 244 runs with 9 wickets in hand. So far they’ve rectified the mistakes made in Leeds where they consistently allowed England back into the game despite dominating large parts of it. None of that business here. No big lapses in the field, no allowing the England lower order to prosper, and going big with the bat when given the opportunity. Gill showed the way with the bat in the first innings, and the duo of Akash Deep and Mohammed Siraj played starring roles with the ball today. Despite that massive partnership for the sixth wicket, they kept running in and pounced on the opportunity with the second new ball, blowing away the lower order in no time once the breakthrough came.

Day 4
Team India declared their 2nd innings for 427/6 and set the target of mammoth 608 for England to win the 2nd Test in 108 overs. So India have batted for an hour after tea and added 123 runs while at it. The hosts were not interested in bowling pace and allowed Bashir and Root to bowl a long spell from both ends. Gill notched up another 150-plus score while Jadeja’s approach looked baffling for major parts of the session. Lot of tired faces in the English camp and they need a miraculous effort if they are to pull this off. Stokes and Baz don’t believe in draws, do they? Remember there is a bit weather around for tomorrow, and let’s hope we have a thrilling finish to this game. Skipper Shubman Gill scored 161 runs and Ravindra Jadeja scored unbeaten 69^ runs. For England, Shoaib Bashir and Josh Tongue picked 2 wickets each.

England scored 72/3 on Day 4 stumps. The level of domination from India in this Test has been astounding, and it’s Gill and Akash Deep – the two top performers of the day – leading them off the field. Following his double hundred from the first innings, the Indian captain struck another ton and made it seem inevitable given the control with which he played. Revolving around his knock, the visitors piled on the runs to set a mammoth target of 608. And then the Indian seamers, for the second time in the match, thoroughly outbowled their counterparts with the new ball to blow away the England top-order. It’s a pitch that’s not too different from the ones they’re used to back home, and they showed their potency by hitting excellent areas and getting enough movement to test the batters. That delivery from Akash Deep to Joe Root was the highlight, with the No.1 ranked batter in the world having no answer at all.

Day 5
England bowled out for 271 runs and lost the 2nd test by 336 runs. After squandering their chance in Leeds, India have vanquished England at Edgbaston to make history with their first-ever win at this venue. They didn’t have a single win here in eight attempts previously, but they’ve broken the jinx in the most emphatic fashion, that too with their most valuable player on the bench. No Bumrah, no problem. Akash Deep stepped in for him and produced a performance for the ages, troubling batters with his nip and skiddiness to pick up ten wickets in the match on a pitch where the England pacers didn’t seem anywhere near as threatening. What a moment for Gill as well with his first Test win as captain. And hasn’t he been just phenomenal with the bat, oozing class and control and making hundreds seem like an inevitability. A hundred in the first Test, a double hundred and hundred in the second, and having his career average jump from 35 to the 40s. The visitors barely put a foot wrong in this Test after being put into bat on the first morning. The captain led the way, and the lower middle-order stepped up as well to post a mammoth 587 on the board. A major difference between the two teams was what their bowlers did in the window where the ball was still new and hard. While England didn’t find the pitch to their liking, the skiddier Indian seamers led by Akash Deep targeted the stumps from different angles and got the ball nipping around. England were reduced to 84/5 in the first innings, and to 83/5 in the second. Those two bursts, along with that crucial one with the second new ball to end a rampaging stand between Jamie Smith and Harry Brook put England a long way behind the eight-ball, never giving a chance to recover. Jamie Smith scored 88 runs and Brydon Carse scored 38 runs. For Team India, Akash Deep picked 6 wickets.

IND: 587 & 427/6d
