Jimmy Anderson has now played Test cricket under eight England captains and six head coaches but says none compare with the current regime under Ben Stokes and Brendon McCullum by way of mentality.
England are looking to whitewash New Zealand 3-0 in their first test series under the new leadership of former Kolkata Knight Riders head coach, Brendon McCullum and new captain Ben Stokes.
Jimmy Anderson will miss England’s final Test against New Zealand due to an ankle problem. Ben Stokes has confirmed the 39-year-old would miss the third Test at Headingley that gets under way on Thursday, but England’s captain is fit after an illness scare earlier in the week.
There was no Ben Stokes at England training on Tuesday, an undisclosed illness forcing the captain to stay away, and for the remainder of the players who began tuning up for the third Test against New Zealand it was a case of seeing double.
Ben Stokes must prove his fitness before the third Test against New Zealand, which starts on Thursday, after the England captain missed the first day of training at Headingley through illness.
