England Seamer James Anderson has raised the bar of fast bowlers around the world just as Sachin Tendulkar did for Batsmen, Australian cricket legend Glenn McGrath said.<\/p>\n
Anderson playing his 156th match, became the first seamer to capture 600 wickets in the game\u2019s longest format as England settled for a draw against Pakistan after a Rain hit Final day of the third Test on Tuesday, this recent milestone by the 38 year old England International has helped him reach a category of bowling greats and is ranked 4th behind the spinning legends like Mutthian Muralitharan (800), Shane Warne (708) and Anil Kumble (619) ahead of him.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe set a bar a bit like Sachin has,\u201d McGrath who previously held the record for most wickets by a pace bowler with 563, told the BBC.<\/p>\n
\u201cI didn\u2019t have the skill level Jimmy has, When he\u2019s swinging that ball, both ways in control, no one does it better\u201d McGrath added.<\/p>\n
Stuart Broad said he had been inspired by Anderson throughout his career.\u00a0\u201cHe is a role model to follow for every English cricketer. He is always searching to be better and better 600 won\u2019t be stopping him.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
