Anderson has 25 fifers to his name

Arguably the best English pacer, James Anderson’s secret of success is quite simple. Get the ball to move in and out of a good length and bowl it towards the off stump or just outside off. Easier said than done, however, Anderson has done it consistently over the years now and has 540 Test scalps to his name.

Along with Broad, Anderson has built a world class bowling partnership who on their day can rip apart the opposition in no time, as they have shown time and again. Anderson has 25 five-wicket hauls to his name, each of them exhibiting class and enviable skill sets.

Against India, Anderson has taken 86 wickets in 22 games, the most wickets by an English bowler against India. All the wickets at a healthy average of 27.27 makes Anderson such a champion bowler for England. With the way a few Indian batsmen have struggled in the practice game, Anderson will be licking his lips, sensing an opportunity to win yet another Test series for his country.
