Rob Key has told James Anderson and Stuart Broad they are available for England selection and says new Test captain Ben Stokes is keen for them to be recalled.
Former Sri Lanka great Mahela Jayawardena believes star all-rounder Ben Stokes will be a "brilliant" Test captain for England if he improves his performances in red-ball cricket. Stokes was announced as England's new Test skipper with the upcoming home series' against New Zealand and India in June. "I think he (Stokes) will be a brilliant captain. He has been around for a while and shown again and again that he is a brilliant competitor and he is a different beast altogether when he is on the field. England haven't seen an all-rounder captaining their Test team for a long time and I think he is the ideal candidate. Having his type of character (as captain) might create a culture which they have had with white-ball cricket recently, but now need to find that same kind of culture with red-ball cricket," Mahela Jayawardena said on The ICC Review.
Rob Key has confirmed that James Anderson and Stuart Broad are set to return to England’s Test fold and says new captain Ben Stokes wants the record-breaking opening bowlers to be part of his side.
Stuart Broad is set to make his return to action for Nottinghamshire on Thursday as he bids to regain his England place.
James Anderson has admitted that Joe Root 's tenure as England Test captain made their friendship "harder".
James Anderson took his first wicket of the season and Josh Bohannon pressed his Test claims as Lancashire dominated their LV= Insurance County Championship Division One clash against Gloucestershire at Emirates Old Trafford.
Lancashire finally broke some determined resistance from Gloucestershire to wrap up an innings-and-57-run win with just 23 balls remaining in the final day's play of their LV= Insurance County Championship Division One clash at Emirates Old Trafford.
Hasan Ali has in been top form for his County side Lancashire in the ongoing Division One match against Gloucestershire. The Pakistani speedster took a magnificent six-for in the first innings to help his team bowl out Gloucestershire for 252. Lancashire then went on to post a massive 556 for seven declared to take a huge first innings lead. Hasan Ali, though, wasn't done yet. He returned to haunt Gloucestershire in the second innings to help his team reduce the opposition to 67 for three at stumps on Day 3. So far, Hasan Ali has taken one wicket in the second innings, but the delivery he produced to remove James Bracey has become the talk of the town.
