Ian Bishop hails James Anderson for his longevity: Former Windies pace bowler Ian Bishop is astonished by England fast bowler James Anderson who recently announced retirement from his long Test tenure. The 41-year-old showed great longevity in his illustrious career that blew Ian Bishop away.
Anderson is set to play his 188th Test match which will be his final one and will be played against West Indies in the legendary Lords. The Test will begin on July 10.
Ian Bishop hails James Anderson for his longevity
Speaking on Sky Sports, Ian Bishop thinks Anderson’s incredible 188 mark would be untouchable and will be impossible for modern fast bowlers to achieve.
“When Courtney Walsh went past 100 Test matches, I thought phenomenal. When Glenn McCgrath went past it, I thought that would never be reached. Just for sheer longevity of volume of Test matches, his (Anderson’s) ability to stay fit is one of the things that put him in a separate dimension.”
