2nd Ashes Test: James Anderson in England’s squad Vs Australia.
Bowling legend James Anderson stated on Wednesday that he wants to play in all four remaining Ashes Tests.
With 632 wickets under his belt. Test cricket’s most prolific fast was controversially left out, of the visitors’ lineup for the series opener in Brisbane. Where they were thrashed by nine wickets in four days.
But he revealed he was back in the squad for the match against Adelaide under the lights. Which kicks off on Thursday, and where the added movement found with a pink ball should suit his game. “I came here hoping to be available for five (Tests). And that doesn’t alter now.

“I think the intervals between the next few Tests will make it a little simplier to get that rest and make sure everyone is fresh, but that’s something I can’t control.”
“If I get picked tomorrow, all I have to do is give it my all.”
Anderson’s non-selection for Brisbane. Along with that of fellow leading strike bowler Stuart Broad, generated outrage among analysts and cricket fans.
While he expressed disappointment at not being able to play in Brisbane. He also stated that because he was nearing the end of his career, he could see the greater picture.
“All I can do is try to prepare as best as I can and keep fit. Skipping the odd game to try and stay fresh for a lengthy series,” said the 166-Test veteran.
“I think that’s something I’ve grown accustomed to over the previous several years.”
