I Would've Felt More Excited If We'd Won The Test Or Series: Anderson On 700 Test Scalps Milestone
New Delhi: Veteran fast-bowler James Anderson said the excitement to reach 700 Test wickets would have been more if England had won the fifth and final Test against India at Dharamshala, where the visitors suffered defeat by an innings and 64 runs to lose the five-game series 4-1.
Anderson, 41, reached the landmark of 700 Test wickets by dismissing Kuldeep Yadav on day three of the Test at the picturesque HPCA Stadium in Dharamshala, becoming the first fast-bowler to do so. He is now third on the all-time list of wicket-takers in Tests behind Muttiah Muralitharan and Shane Warne.
"It was a nice moment and nice to do it at a picturesque ground. My dad was here so we had a drink, which was nice. He was more excited than I was. Maybe I would've felt more excited if we'd have won the Test or the series. It's been a long series, and I don't know how I feel," said Anderson to the BBC Tailenders podcast.
