The tigers are smaller than elephants. We have seen a pride of African lions attacking large and big animals such as giraffes and African elephants. The tigers never face-off with a African elephant. But they encounter Asian elephants, which are smaller. In Corbett National Park the tigers are known to kill a bull Asian elephant alone. If these tigers were social they would annually prey upon elephants. The Siberian tiger which is much larger than the Indian tiger. They can easily bring down an bull Asian elephant. Imagine if they were social they can also easily bring down an African bull elephant. So the the tigers surely can win against a elephant. There are many records of female Indian tigers itself killing a elephant.

Answer Elephants have been known to pick up a big cat (lion or tiger) with their trunk and throw it down hard onto the ground and kill it. This is extremely rare, but it has been reported by wildlife observers. It is rare for a tiger to attack a healthy adult elephant because the animal is just too large for the cat to have the advantage it likes. Also, the tiger knows the pachyderm can severely injure or kill it. A tiger might attempt to startle a group of elephants and isolate a younger animal that it has a good chance of killing without injury to itself. Use the link below to read more about elephant and tiger/lion interaction. Answer An elephant would most likely win but there have been accounts of tigers killing adult elephants or injuring adult elephants to the point that they later die of the wounds. Death by a 1000 cuts. AnswerIt depends on the type of the elephant and tiger.
