Been saying that for four or five years. I'd have given up on Archer before giving up on Anderson. Personally. Would have let Jimmy go as long as he wanted if he stayed at the level he's been at.
Mixed feelings on this. An absolute legend of the game and England's greatest ever bowler, but his recent form has suggested his powers are on the wain. It's always better to bow out on your own terms, rather get tapped on the shoulder, but I applaud them for giving him one last game...even more so because I'm going to the 1st day of the Lords test...
That would be just my luck. Sat in Headingley Taps for about 7 hours last year waiting for End v Ireland to start....
Good article about Jimmy https://www.theguardian.com/sport/a...on-like-a-golden-nugget-falling-into-your-lap
Hoped it might one of those Stokes innings but it was not to be. Brilliant effort anyway. DCCC are not out of place in Div One
Just wasn’t to be for Durham, never mind. Back on home turf next up against Somerset, starting Friday.
