    "editor1": "<p><strong>Southampton, Aug 10:&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;Veteran England fast-bowler James Anderson on Monday ended speculations surrounding his future and stated he still remains hungry to play the game.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The 38-year-old didn&#39;t have the best of games in the recently-concluded Manchester Test against Pakistan and he also expressed his feelings regarding the same. He scalped just one wicket in the first innings and then went wicketless in the second.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;It&#39;s been a frustrating week for me personally,&quot; Anderson told reporters via videoconference as per ESPNcricinfo. &quot;I&#39;ve not bowled very well and felt out of rhythm. For the first time in probably 10 years I got a little bit emotional on the field.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;I got a bit frustrated and let it get to me a little bit. It reminded me of when I first started playing, when you get frustrated and a little bit angry, you try and bowl quicker and quicker and it doesn&#39;t help,&quot; he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Anderson revealed he is targetting next year&#39;s Ashes and has no plans of hanging his illustrious boots soon. He also lashed out at reports claiming his retirement after &#39;one bad game&#39;.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Yes, I absolutely want to play in the Ashes. But it&#39;s not like that&#39;s a focus of mine. I want to play as long as I possibly can. I&#39;m still hungry to play the game,&quot; Anderson said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;If I keep bowling the way I did this week, the opportunity to retire will be taken out of my hands. It will be a selection issue. I think the frustration for me this week was the sort of whispers that go around after one bad game. I don&#39;t think that&#39;s really fair.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Everyone has a bad game every now and then. That&#39;s how I look at it. I&#39;ll work hard to try and put things right if I get a chance next week if I get the chance,&quot; England&#39;s leading wicket-taker in the longest format added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Anderson remains in contention for a place in the side for the second Test starting Thursday at the Ageas Bowl. In the absence of all-rounder Ben Stokes, who will miss the remaining Test series due to family reasons, Anderson is expected to shoulder the responsibility along with other England bowlers.<\/p>\r\n",
