Sachin Heaps Praise On On Anderson’s 700 Wickets, Calls It “stellar Achievement”
New Delhi: Legendary batter Sachin Tendulkar expressed delight after James Anderson became the first pace bowler to pick up 700 wickets in the longest form of cricket calling it a “stellar achievement”.
James Anderson on Saturday became the first-ever pace bowler to pick up 700 Test wickets during the third day of the fifth match against India at HPCA. The legendary fast bowler became only the third man after Sri Lanka's Muttiah Muralitharan (800) and leg-spinner Shane Warne (708) to achieve the feat in the cricket's longest format.
Anderson dismissed Kuldeep Yadav on Day 3 of the fifth Test against India on Saturday to reach the milestone. An off-cutter from around the wicket lured Kuldeep into the drive. The ball took the outside edge and Ben Foakes did the rest behind the stumps.
