James Anderson is one of the greatest bowler of all time for England. Not only for England who is the best bowler for world cricket. Most of the fans called him ‘King of the Swing’. The meaning of his nickname is the ability to swing the bowl. His swing bowls have created so many problems for the best batsmen in the world. He is an awesome bowler in English tracks and those tracks are ideal for swing bowling.
Jimmy Anderson started his
international career in 2002 against Australia. Then he started test career in
2003 against Zimbabwe. After that, he is a regular member of the English test team.
He was born in 1982 and now he is 38 years old. He played his last test against
South Africa in 2020. Soon after he faced an injury and lost the other two test
matches. His future is very doubtful and I believe he will retire from cricket
soon.
All cricket matches in the world
are stops due to Coronavirus. This will make no more matches to play for him
and it’s better to retire for at this stage. Anderson has played 151 matches
and taken 584 test wickets. He is the leading wicket-taker for a fast bowler in world cricket. Coronavirus will make no matches to play within England and
which will most of the time make Anderson to quick his retirement.
Anderson has done brilliant service
for England cricket. This has made to get Knighthood for him and he received Queen’s
order in 2015. He has struggled so many powerful batting units in English
tracks and finally takes his team into victory. He was received nice support
from the other side when he was bowling. Stuart Broad the man who was regular
supported him from the other side. They have together break 500+ wickets and it is
the best bowling partnership for England forever.
Anderson contributes the English team
to win 2009, 2013, and 2015 ashes for England. This has made him proud and
it was the biggest win for him. Jimmy stopped playing ODI cricket in 2015 due
to their poor performance in 2015 cricket world cup. England eliminated from
the tournament after losing the match against Bangladesh. This made him retire from one day cricket. It was finally became a good decision for him and
he succeed in the test cricket. However, Anderson is the most ODI wicket-taker
for England.
He has taken 100+ wickets in Lord's
cricket ground and only Muttiah Muralidharan achieved this effort before. As a
cricket fan, I loved his bowling against India in 2018. Indian batsman was facing many difficulties when facing him and who took many wickets. He has
trapped Virat Kholi on so many occasions. But Kholi then loves to play against
him in English soil.
However, I can believe James
Anderson will retire from cricket soon after the Coronavirus case. If he receives a
match or series, it will his final series for England as a home series.
Anderson still believes he can play England country cricket for a few more years.
This is hopeful to see what will happen in the future. I still believe Jimmy
will end his career this year.
