James Anderson, the seasoned fast-bowler from England, recently shared insights into his admiration for former Indian left-arm seamer Zaheer Khan. Reflecting on his learning journey, Anderson revealed that he closely observed Zaheer's techniques to understand the nuances of bowling in challenging conditions during Test matches.
Acknowledging the prowess of current Indian fast bowlers such as Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammad Shami, Mohammed Siraj, and Ishant Sharma, Anderson highlighted Zaheer Khan's impact on his own bowling approach. He emphasized studying Zaheer's mastery of reverse swing and his technique of covering the ball while running into bowl. Anderson credited his efforts to develop these skills to his encounters with Zaheer on the field.
Furthermore, Anderson expressed admiration for Jasprit Bumrah's remarkable performance during a Test match at Visakhapatnam. Bumrah's exceptional display of reverse swing, which resulted in a six-wicket haul for India in England's first innings, left Anderson in awe of the young Indian bowler's talent and skill.
