By Saurabh Sharma December 25, 2019 • 11:37 AM View: 1347

Centurion, Dec 25: England's leading pacer James Anderson will make his 150th Test appearance when he makes a return from injury during the first Test against South Africa beginning Thursday at the SuperSport Park.

Anderson will be the ninth cricketer to reach the 150-Test milestone -- joining the likes of Sachin Tendulkar, Steve Waugh and Jacques Kallis. The right-handed bowler last played in the first Ashes Test when he had to leave the field after bowling just four overs. After that, he also missed two-Test series against New Zealand.
