Ex-England bowler Anderson enters draft for The Hundred

After being selected for the tournament this year, legendary former England fast bowler James Anderson wants to play for the first time in The Hundred.

The 42-year-old retired from Test cricket last year and will now play county cricket for Lancashire.

England’s best wicket-taker has made himself available for The Hundred and will be a draft pick on March 12.

Anderson did not sell at the auction for the Indian Premier League this year.

Since a One-Day Cup semi-final for Lancashire in 2019, he has not played any kind of white-ball cricket.

In the 2014 Blast against Warwickshire final, Anderson lost to the Red Rose in a losing effort in the T20.
