- ‘Joe Root has said he would like me to be in Australia’
- England captain effusive about Zak Crawley’s impact
Jimmy Anderson can see no reason why 700 Test wickets and a place on next year’s Ashes tour should not be a reasonable set of targets after carving out the latest milestone in his record-breaking, age-defying England career.
When he left Australia in 2017 he claimed it would be his last series in the country but, fresh from becoming the first seamer in history to reach the 600-wicket mark – and feeling frustrated the Test summer is now over after match figures of seven for 101 in Southampton – the fire clearly still burns.
