England fast bowler James Anderson will retire from test cricket after the match against the West Indies at Lord’s starting July 10, bringing an end to one of the most remarkable careers in the history of the international game.
It will be the 41-year-old Anderson’s 188th test match — only India great Sachin Tendulkar (200) has more — and gives him one more chance to add to his total of 700 test wickets, comfortably the most by a pacer. Only spinners Shane Warne and Muttiah Muralitharan have more test wickets.
“It’s been an incredible 20 years representing my country, playing the game I’ve loved since I was a kid,” Anderson, who made his test debut in 2003 also at Lord’s, said Saturday.
“I’m going to miss walking out for England so much. But I know the time is right to step aside and let others realize their dreams just like I got to, because there is no greater feeling.”
