    "editor1": "<p><strong>Abu Dhabi, October 12<\/strong> - Pacer James Anderson has rejected Pakistan captain Misbah-ul-Haq&rsquo;s claim the current England team is weaker than in 2012. England begin a three-match Test series here on Tuesday. Pakistan defeated England 3-0 in 2012.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Misbah had said England appear to be weak that 2012, because of the absence of experienced players like batsmen Kevin Pietersen and Jonathan Trott.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Their spinners back then, Graeme Swann and Monty Panesar, were more experienced and destructive and I feel England are going to miss them,&rdquo; Misbah wrote in a column for cricket.com.au on Sunday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>But Anderson says England are less experienced but not short on quality.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;I wouldn&#39;t say we&#39;re weaker. I&#39;d say we&#39;re less experienced,&quot; Anderson said. &quot;The quality and talent that we&#39;ve got in the side is easily a match for the side that came out here in 2012.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;We&#39;re fortunate we&#39;ve got players that have played out here before and can offer experience to those guys that haven&#39;t. Hopefully that will stand us in good stead,&quot; he was quoted as saying by cricket.com.au on Tuesday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Pakistan will play the first Test without batsman Azhar Ali, who has been ruled out due to a foot infection.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>(IANS)<\/p>\r\n",
