England Test record-breaker James Anderson says 'plenty more still to come'

Record-breaker James Anderson says he is still improving and expects to be part of the England Test team for a few more years yet.

On Friday in Antigua, the 32-year-old from Burnley became England’s all-time leading wicket-taker in Test cricket during the drawn first Test against the West Indies.

By collecting his fourth wicket of the match – and 384th of his career – Anderson overtook the record held by Sir Ian Botham, who ended his England career in 1992.

And the Lancastrian said in his column in the Sun on Sunday: "I am convinced I can still improve as a bowler and take plenty more wickets for England.

"There is no way I am going to rest on my laurels and enter cruise control just because I have the record. I'm going to work damn hard to try to get better.

"I can definitely improve, I can learn more tricks. For example, the leg-cutter with which I took my record 384th wicket was a delivery I learned from Stuart Broad as recently as the World Cup."

As for his future, he added:  "I don't want to put limits on anything. I feel fit enough and strong enough to bowl in the high-80s if I need to but I'm also sensible enough to realise you can't do it all the time.

"I'm quite relieved the record is out of the way and I can concentrate on doing my job for the rest of the series."
