England great James Anderson feels he is still bowling as well as ever as he prepares to play his final Test against West Indies at Lord's this week.
James Anderson feels he is still bowling as well as ever as he prepares to play the final Test of his legendary England career against West Indies at Lord's this week.
"I knew it had to end at some point, whether it's now or a year or two years," he said. "The fact that it's now is just something that I've got to deal with and accept." "I had a suspicion that that was going to be the case. I think they were surprised at how calm I was and I was probably surprised at my reaction. I wasn't overly emotional or angry about it.
By his standards, it had been a relatively slow crawl to the landmark, with 18 wickets in his previous eight Tests. "Coming off the back of seven-for last week, obviously I feel like I'm still bowling as well as I ever have," he said. Broad enjoyed a fairytale departure, hitting the final ball he faced as a batter for six, then taking a wicket to win the Test with his final delivery as a bowler.
