Andrew Strauss Praises 40-Year Old James Anderson For His Longevity In Cricket

By IANS News August 16, 2022 • 12:30 PM View: 1448

Former England skipper Andrew Strauss termed pace-bowling stalwart James Anderson's longevity in competitive cricket as "crazy", and also drew comparisons with himself saying it was amazing to see his contemporary still going strong, while he had retired almost 10 years ago.

Anderson, 40, is on the verge of playing another crucial Test series -- this time against South Africa -- when the opening match commences at Lord's on August 17.
