The swing king reveals he ‘hated every minute’ of the franchise league hype.
James Anderson, the legendary fast bowler and the only player to snag 700 Test wickets, has dropped a bombshell about his feelings towards The Hundred. Spoiler alert: he’s not a fan. In a candid reveal, Anderson admitted he ‘hated every minute’ of the tournament, and it sounds like he’d rather be anywhere but at the crease when it kicks off this season.
Anderson's disdain for the franchise league is palpable, hinting at a preference for traditional formats over the flashy, short-term thrills of The Hundred. As the swing maestro eyes a holiday during the tournament, it’s clear he’s not keen on joining the party that’s got half the cricketing world buzzing.
While fans gear up for this exciting format, it’s a stark reminder that not every player is on board with the new wave of cricket. Expect more fireworks and debates as the tournament unfolds, with Anderson’s thoughts likely sparking further discussions among players and fans alike.
