AFP, London :
England bowler James Anderson is determined that the coronavirus will not end his illustrious career as he focuses on keeping fit by taking part in “virtual” training sessions with his teammates.
Anderson, 37, whose 584 Test wickets are the most taken by any paceman in the history of the game, is nearing the end of his playing days.
But the Lancashire veteran says despite having no cricket to play until the end of May at the earliest, the idea of not bowling professionally again has not crossed his mind.
“I’ve not actually thought about never playing cricket again,” he said during a conference call on Thursday. “I feel like we will play again and I will play again at some stage.
“I’m still hungry to play, I’ve still got ambitions to play for England.
