James Anderson grabs seven Lancashire wickets before England Test farewell

Must read

James Anderson took seven wickets in Lancashire’s County Championship match against Nottinghamshire, eight days before his farewell Test appearance for England.

Anderson had figures of 6-19 as he ripped through the Notts batting line-up before lunch as the visitors reached 74-6, and then added another in the afternoon session.

It is the first match the 41-year-old has played all summer as he gears up for the first Test against West Indies at Lord’s on 10 July.

That will be the 188th Test of his career – having made his debut in 2003 and taken 700 wickets, the most of any fast bowler in Test history.
