England has produced many match-winners but there has been hardly any of the calibre of James Anderson. Regarded as one of the best swing bowlers of all time, the 40-year-old has moved the ball both ways and dismantled batting line-ups for fun.

Anderson is the most successful pacer in the history of Test cricket and picked up a staggering tally of 685 wickets in 179 matches at an average of 25.99. Though the veteran pacer is at an age, many bowlers of the previous generation have retired, he is still leading the England pace attack to perfection.

When England has clashed with Australia, Anderson has breathed fire and tormented bowlers with his swing. He has featured in 35 Tests against the Aussies and taken 112 wickets at an average of 33.76. The Burnley-born would look to put his best foot forward in the forthcoming edition of the Ashes.
