Cricket: Nice analysis of late-career Jimmy Anderson 14:14 - Feb 9 with 539 viewsSteve_M

Plenty of nice numbers here but this stood out:

"Anderson’s spell was the eighth time he’d taken at least three wickets in a spell lasting five overs or less — and all eight of those instances have been since 2015"

I still wouldn't take him to Australia for the next Ashes. His Test bowling average in Australia is already over 35, largely because the kookaburra ball doesn't swing much & while he's as effective as ever in English or other seam friendly conditions, he won't find much of those in Oz.

Look at the crucial wickets he’s taken today and he did well in Sri Lanka - this was written a little while back.

He averages 29.3 in Australia, 25 in New Zealand, 30 in South Africa, 15.61 in the UAE and 20.4 in the West Indies. The two countries where he has struggled are India (53.5 in three Tests) and Sri Lanka (105 in two Tests).25 Aug 2020

He’s worked out ways to bowl in Sri LanKa and India - I’d write him off for Australia at your peril.

This site has Anderson with a Test bowling average of 35 in Australia, 33 in India & the same in Sri Lanka. While as he isn't dependent on pace so his effectiveness might be as good as ever, in Australia i think he's only be a stock bowler & not sure he'd be wanting to bowl 20 overs a day in Australian heat.
