I sort of expected that. I hope he gets to play most of the tests and goes out on a high like BroadLast season for Jimmy, not totally unexpected.

Lancashire 305-8, Bruce out for 73, with 7 balls left in the day. Disappointing effort all round on a good pitch.

I wonder if he'll play for Lancashire for the rest of the season ?
Meanwhile Lancashire bowled out for 331. Notts, 47-1, a wicket in his comeback for Mahmood.

And those us either in or approaching middle age shed a tear....
Farewell Jimmy.

There's some amazing personal stats in here :
Jimmy Anderson is the harbinger of summer and England will never have another | Andy Bull
The record wicket-taker has played a fifth of all England’s Tests, and the absence of his guile and skill will take some getting used to
Lunch, Notts 64-2.
We are very lucky that the best cricketer in England values test cricket and is trying to keep it popular, it might keep it at the top for another generation but after that who knows. Times have changed and we wont ever see another Jimmy, soak up that last test, just gutted its at the bland tory bowl of Lords with a pack sleepy fruit salads to see him offThere's some amazing personal stats in here :

Pity he won't be playing his last test at Old Trafford. I wonder if he was given the option ?
Started at Lords and finished there so there is a synchronicity to it, as much as I think Lords is crap it means a lot to the players

Notts 231-5, 100 behind. Hameed, of course, 122 n.o. Lancashire again failing to break through the middle order, they were 104-4, and 191-5.
Hinchcliffe's Corner
Player Valuation: £40m
Still a bit of a surprise to me that he's been tapped on the shoulder to retire, I think you pick your best players regardless when it comes to test match cricket, you don't blood players in at that level, you pick every team to win and Jimmy imo would still be one of the first names on the teamsheet. I don't agree with age being a reason to retire unless you're Ashley Young. If you've got it, you've got it.
