WI Aims to Play Spoilers in Anderson’s Final Test Series

The West Indies will take on England in the first match of a three Test series at Lord’s starting on July 10.

England legend James Anderson joked that he is focusing on bowling well and winning his final match in a bid to prevent himself from crying as he is set to retire from cricket.

Forty-one-year-old Anderson is set to end his career after the first Test.

Anderson is the pacer with the most wickets in Test cricket with 700 and will be looking to go past Shane Warne’s 708 as the second-highest wicket-taker in the longest format of the game.

Sri Lanka’s Muthiah Muralidaran with 800 is the highest wicket-taker.

West Indies all-rounder, Jason Holder, says he’s not focus on spoiling Anderson’s farewell party.

Meanwhile, fast bowler, Jayden Seales, says they hope to put a smile on the faces of the Caribbean fans as the region recovers from the effects of Hurricane Beryl.
