Stuart Broad and James Anderson
T20 cricket is the most popular among the three formats of cricket. This format has created a buzz all over the world and this is the reason why even players who have retired from international cricket are unable to stop themselves from playing in the T20 league. The name of a great bowler can now be included among such cricketers. This great bowler is none other than former England cricketer James Anderson who has 704 wickets in Tests. Anderson recently retired from international cricket. After retirement, Anderson is now associated with the England cricket team as a bowling mentor.
Anderson prepares to return
Actually, James Anderson is in the mood to return to the field once again after retirement. James Anderson may return to T20 cricket after 10 years, as a team from America’s Major League Cricket (MLC) has shown interest in joining him for the 2025 season. The 42-year-old bowler, who retired from international cricket in July 2024, has not played any white ball cricket since 2019. His last T20 match was the 2014 NatWest Blast final for Lancashire. At the same time, he played his last T20 match for England in 2009. Before James Anderson, star players like Australian Test captain Pat Cummins, Steve Smith, Glenn Maxwell and Travis Head have participated in MLC.

Anderson has played 188 Test matches for England and has taken 704 wickets. It is expected that he can get a huge amount of 135000 pounds for playing in MLS. James Anderson had expressed his desire to return to the cricket field only last month. He had said that he is still very fit and can return to limited overs cricket. Anderson is the third highest wicket-taker in the world in Test cricket. He has taken 704 wickets in 188 Test matches. He is also the first fast bowler in the world to take more than 700 Test wickets.
