ENG vs IND 2025: Top three leading run-scorers in Test series

The Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy 205 between England and India witnessed some of the finest batting performances in recent Test cricket history. The five-match series was largely a run-fest, with batters from both sides dominating the bowlers across various conditions. Several iconic knocks lit up the series, making it a true test of skill to come on top of the moving red ball in English overcast conditions.

As a classic Test match series has come to an end after 45 days of nail-biting cricketing action, it is a good time to check who were the top three batters with most runs.

3. KL Rahul

The stylish batter KL Rahul finished as the third-highest run-scorer of the series with 532 runs in 10 innings at an average of 53.20, including two centuries and two fifties. The dynamic Indian opener began his campaign with a brilliant 137 in the second innings at Leeds, showing grit on a challenging Day 4 pitch, even though the innings came in a losing cause.

In the victorious match at Edgbaston, he added a vital 55 in the second innings, helping India to gain momentum. At Lord’s, known for its slope, Rahul produced a determined century (100) under pressure. The Karnataka-born followed it up with a crucial 90 at Old Trafford, playing a key role in securing a draw and keeping India alive in the series.
