LONDON :England's James Anderson brought down the curtain on his stellar international career by taking a wicket against West Indies on the third day of the first test at Lord's on Friday as he helped his side wrap up a comfortable win by an innings and 114 runs.
England fast-bowling great James Anderson has admitted that legendary Indian batter Sachin Tendulkar is the toughest opponent he has faced in his career. As Anderson draws the curtains on an illustrious career, he has revealed that Tendulkar would be the batsman to whom he would not know what to bowl. Anderson is one of only three bowlers to take more than 700 Test wickets (701* at the time of writing), but even he has admitted that he would not have a game plan against Tendulkar.
As James Anderson winds down the clock in his career, the fans at Lord's were treated to a spectacular catch on the first day of the first England vs West Indies Test. England batsman Harry Brook, fielding at third slip, took a stunning diving catch to dismiss West Indies' debutant opener Mikyle Louis. Louis had worked his way up to a slow but steady 27 on debut, when Brook's sensational effort sent the 23-year-old from St. Kitts and Nevis back to the dugout. England captain Ben Stokes, who was the bowler, had a reaction worthy of a watch.
LONDON : Fast bowler Gus Atkinson and wicketkeeper Jamie Smith will make their red-ball debuts for England in the first of the three-match home series against West Indies, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) said on Monday.
England vs West Indies 1st Test Day 1 Live Updates: James Anderson was thrust straight into the action in his final Test as England captain Ben Stokes won the toss and elected to field against the West Indies at Lord's on Wednesday. Stokes's decision was greeted by huge cheers from the crowd at the 'Home of Cricket', with spectators eager to see Anderson do what he does best in the paceman's 188th and final Test of a record-breaking career spanning two decades. No fast bowler has taken more than the 41-year-old Anderson's 700 Test wickets and only India batting hero Sachin Tendulkar has played more matches (200) in the format. Overcast skies promised to assist swing bowler Anderson, who made his Test debut against Zimbabwe at Lord's back in 2003. But looking ahead to the 2025/26 Ashes, England believe now is the right time to end his international career. (Live Scorecard)
