    "editor1": "<p><strong>Cape Town, Jan 9:<\/strong>&nbsp;England pace spearhead James Anderson was on Wednesday ruled out of the final two Tests of their tour of South Africa with a rib injury.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>According to a BBC report, Anderson, England&#39;s all-time leading wicket-taker, picked up the injury during the second Test on Tuesday as England registered a thrilling 189-run win over South Africa at Newlands here to level the four-match series 1-1.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Anderson picked up five wickets in the first innings, his 28th five-wicket haul as the 37-year old went past Ian Botham and Ravichandran Ashwin with the most Test fifers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Ashwin and Botham have 27 five-wicket hauls to their name in Tests. Anderson moved to the eighth spot in the list of most five-wicket hauls in Test cricket. Sri Lanka&#39;s Muttiah Muralitharan has the most number of fifers in Tests (67), followed by Australian Shane Warne (37), New Zealand&#39;s Richard Hadlee (36), India&#39;s Anil Kumble (35), Sri Lankan Rangana Herath (34) and Australian Glenn Mcgrath (29).<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Anderson&#39;s unavailability is a huge blow to England with the pacer getting back his rhythm. He only returned to action after being out for four months with a calf injury in the first Test in South Africa, which started on Boxing Day.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Anderson has taken nine wickets so far against South Africa, the most by an England bowler, including seven in the second Test in Cape Town.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Fast bowler Jofra Archer is expected to return to the team after missing out on the Newlands Test due to a sore elbow. Craig Overton will remain in South Africa as cover for Anderson, the BBC report said.<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n",
