Chennai, 11/2: In the first Test match played in Chennai, James Anderson, who has nudged the Indian batsmen with his reverse swing, is not scheduled to play in the second match. England’s head coach Chris Silverwood himself has indicated this. Silverwood told reporters that there is no dearth of fitness for Anderson. He said that he would not be surprised if Anderson would lead England’s pace bowling attack even after 40 years. But given the long tour of India, England can rest him in the second Test.
The England coach said in an online press conference, ‘Anderson seems to be fully fit. He has worked hard on his fitness. Along with being fit, his bowling is also amazing.
He said, ‘As long as Anderson is fit, strong and healthy and wants to play, he can play’.
