James Anderson: The Hundred? No Thanks!
The legend spills the tea on his time with Manchester Originals in 2025.
James Anderson, the fast-bowling maestro, has had his say on The Hundred, and let’s just say it’s not exactly glowing praise. Playing for Manchester Originals in 2025, he revealed, "I hated every minute of it!" Clearly, the format didn’t sit well with the seasoned pro, who’s used to the traditional game’s nuances.
Anderson's disdain for the tournament raises eyebrows, especially considering his legendary status in the sport. Was it the ultra-short games or the flashy style that didn’t resonate? Whatever it was, it’s a stark contrast to his illustrious career in Test cricket, where patience and grit are key.
Fans are left wondering what went wrong in this high-stakes, high-reward format that’s captured the imagination of many. With Anderson’s candid remarks, it’s clear that not everyone is on board with The Hundred. Will this spark a larger conversation about the format’s future?
