ENG vs PAK: James Anderson on cusp of history as England remain on top

By Saurabh Sharma August 25, 2020 • 09:51 AM View: 1093

Southampton, Aug 24: James Anderson grabbed his 599th Test wicket as England remained in the driver's seat against Pakistan who reached 100/2 following on at stumps on the rain-hit Day 4 of the third and final Test at the Ageas Bowl on Monday.

Looking to become the first pace bowler to take 600 Test wickets, Anderson trapped Abid Ali (42) in front to snare his 599th wicket before bad light forced skipper Joe Root to resort to spin, as off-spinner Dom Bess and the England captain bowled the last few overs before play was abandoned.
