‘I hated every minute of it’: James Anderson pulls out of The Hundred with harsh admission

-

James Anderson does not usually speak to create controversies. He is a level-headed guy, respecting the game, which has made him one of the greatest ever. However, his admission to the Hundred tournament is something that stands out.

Looking back at his brief stint in The Hundred last season, the England great did not try to dress it up. He literally said that he hated every minute he was part of it.

“It was a mixture of hating every minute of The Hundred last year, if I can say that, and especially being captain this year, I think it’s really important that I focus on being as fit as I can be for the four-day stuff. I want to play in the Blast as well again,” Anderson told the Independent. “When The Hundred’s on, I’m hopefully going to be on holiday somewhere.”

The numbers do not say much. Three games, two wickets, an economy touching 11. For someone who had just picked up 17 wickets in the early phase of the T20 Blast to earn that wildcard call, it was a quiet tournament. But for Anderson, it was less about returns and more about comfort. Or the lack of it.
