James Anderson Signs One-year Contract Extension With Lancashire
Following his international retirement in 2024, Anderson signed an initial one-year contract with Lancashire ahead of the 2025 season, which saw England’s all-time leading wicket-taker pick up 17 dismissals in six County Championship appearances at an average of 24.
Anderson also made a significant impact during his return to the Vitality Blast last season – playing his first matches in the competition for more than a decade -- taking 14 wickets at an economy rate of just 6.9, helping Lancashire Lightning to reach Finals Day.
