Pataudi Trophy name change : Patoudi’s name was removed by the name of the series in the name of Tendulkar-Anderson. Even the netizens did not stop the God of cricket Sachin Tendulkar. Sachin has finally opened his mouth in a strong debate. Master Blaster has made it clear that he has tried every way to preserve Patoudi’s heritage.
The India-England Test series is set to begin on June 23. The previous name of the series was the Pataudi Trophy. Currently the series is called Tendulkar-Anderson Trophy. There was no less controversy over the name. It is also alleged that efforts are underway to erase Patoudi’s heritage. But even in such a debate, the name of the series is not changing. It is reported that the name of the series will be officially announced on June 7, the day before the series start. It was initially thought that the series would be named after a glorious event. But all the greatness of the Ahmedabad plane crash has been canceled.
After the name of the Pataudi Trophy was changed, Sachin Tandulkar himself was named after the new series. It is known that he has requested the England Board to maintain Pataudi’s heritage. Sachin later spoke to the BCCI. Then ICC chairman Joy Shah intervened the matter. It was then decided that the Medal of Excellence would be handed over to the series -winning captain. The award will be given to honor Patoudi.
However, after all this, the storm of criticism has not diminished. Sachin has opened his mouth in a podcast. He said, “Pataudi’s tradition needs to be saved. The contribution of the Pataudi family to Indian cricket is unacceptable. I have talked to his family. I have talked to Joy Shah, BCCI, ECB-Culler. Then it is decided that the Pataudi medal will be given to the series-winning captain. But after Sachin’s cleansing, will the controversy stop?
