‘This Is The Right Time’: Rob Key On James Anderson's Test Retirement At Lord's
Test Match Special County Cricket: England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) managing director Rob Key feels that veteran pacer James Anderson's decision to draw a curtain on his Test career came at the 'right time' for the country.
Last week, Anderson announced that the first Test against West Indies at Lord's, starting on July 10, will be his final red-ball game for the country. The 41-year-old is the highest wicket-taker in Test cricket as a pacer with 700 scalps in 187 matches.
Key, a former England batter, was part of the discussion panel along with head coach Brendon McCullum and captain Ben Stokes that led to the pacer's retirement.
