James Anderson To Retire Following England’s First Test Against West Indies At Lord’s (ld)
James Anderson: England's veteran fast-bowler James Anderson has announced he will retire from international cricket after the first Test of their upcoming home summer against West Indies at Lord's, starting on July 10.
Anderson, 41, became the third bowler after Shane Warne and Muttiah Muralitharan to reach the landmark of 700 Test wickets – the most by any fast bowler - earlier this year during England’s fifth and final match of their India tour at Dharamshala.
But reports emerged in various sections of the British media on Friday that Brendon McCullum, England’s Test coach, has asked for Anderson, the country's leading wicket-taker in Tests, to retire to build a team for the future, especially with Ashes happening in 2025-26.
