ENG vs IND head to head record in Tests: There will be a lot at stake when India take on England in the first of the five-match Test series starting Friday at Headingley in Leeds under new leader Shubman Gill. While Ben Stokes-led England are also struggling in the bowling department, they still continue to hold an edge over a depleted Indian side after the shock retirements of veterans Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli.

The upcoming Tendulkar-Anderson trophy (called the Pataudi trophy earlier) will be the 37th series between India and England. England have 19 of them, while India have won 12 and five series have ended in a draw. With 51 wins in a total of 136 Tests between the two nations, England is ahead in the head-to-head record.

England also boasts an impeccable record at home, having won 36 out of the 67 Tests, while the visiting Indian team have only won nine times. Joe Root is the highest run getter in ENG vs IND Tests while James Anderson is the highest wicket-taker.
