The Calcutta Cup

HH

The Calcutta Cup is a Rugby Union trophy awarded to the winner of the annual Six Nations Championship match between England and Scotland. Currently England have retained it since 2009.

HH

The cup was first competed for in 1879 - England has won just over half of the 123 matches and Scotland has won around one third.

The cup itself is of Indian workmanship, decorated with cobras and an elephant. It is now in a fragile state after much mistreatment.
