England legend James Anderson confirms retirement date

How Anderson reached Test history

James Anderson is one of the most successful bowlers in Test history, taking 700 wickets in 187 matches. He is the most successful pace bowler of all time, and the third-highest wicket-taker overall, behind only Muttiah Muralitharan and Shane Warne.

Anderson's journey to 700 Test scalps

Anderson made his Test debut in 2003, and quickly established himself as one of England's leading bowlers. He took 10 wickets in his first match, and has since gone on to take 10 or more wickets in a match 33 times. He is the only bowler to have taken 10 or more wickets in a match against all nine Test-playing nations.

Anderson's success is due to his ability to swing the ball both ways, and his accuracy. He is also a very intelligent bowler, and is able to adapt his style to different conditions.

Anderson's retirement will be a big loss for England. He is one of the best bowlers in the world, and has been a key part of England's success in recent years.

Conclusion

James Anderson is one of the greatest bowlers of all time. His retirement will be a big loss for England, and for the game of cricket. He is a true legend, and his legacy will live on for many years to come.
