Anderson, England\u2019s leading wicket-taker with 704 scalps, retired from international cricket this year after playing in the Lord\u2019s Test against the West Indies in July. He has now registered for the IPL 2025 mega auction at a base price of INR 1.25 crore.\n<p>Anderson, who now works as a fast-bowling mentor with England, last played a T20 game in 2014 and has never played in the IPL before. The IPL 2025 mega auction will be held in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia on November 24 and 25, and has got a longlist of 1574 players.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cI think it\u2019s brilliant, I\u2019ll be interested to see if anyone picks him up. He\u2019s obviously just trying to experience as much cricket as he can. If he doesn\u2019t get picked up that might be it for his cricket, but if he does, what an opportunity, what an experience.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s played so much international cricket but he\u2019s never played for a franchise. I say that might be it, but there might be other franchise tournaments he\u2019s about to put his name forward for, so it\u2019s interesting,\u201d said Cook to TNT Sports.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>England are all set to play five T20Is against the West Indies, which marks their last assignment before Brendon McCullum takes over as England's white-ball team's coach in January 2025, a year which will see the team play in the Champions Trophy in February-March.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Cook talked about how England could fare under McCullum in white-ball cricket going forward. \u201cWhat I know from talking to the England guys in the Test team is that McCullum has an amazing ability to unite a team and push it forward in one direction, and the ability to seemingly get the best out of individuals so they\u2019re performing at their peak.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cSo I think he\u2019ll do that, and it\u2019ll be interesting to see what he thinks is England\u2019s best side. He\u2019s probably been involved in selection, but at the minute we haven\u2019t played our best side for a long time because the fixture schedule\u2019s been so tight.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Cook talked about how England could fare under McCullum in white-ball cricket going forward. \u201cWhat I know from talking to the England guys in the Test team is that McCullum has an amazing ability to unite a team and push it forward in one direction, and the ability to seemingly get the best out of individuals so they\u2019re performing at their peak.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><b>Also Read: <\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/tagging\/highest-tax-paying-cricketers\">Highest tax paying cricketers<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Article Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/ians.in\/english-wire\/sports\/1\" rel=\"nofollow\">IANS<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n",
