Sachin Tendulkar's priceless 'Hey Jimmy' post for retiring James Anderson after England great's 'best batter' remark

It took just 11 overs, stretched across an hour, before the inevitable happened on Friday at the Lord's in London. With the game ended the illustrious career of James Anderson, who picked four wickets across two innings in the match before drawing curtains on his outstanding 21-year-old Test career. Sachin Tendulkar shared a post on retiring James Anderson Anderson, who made his international debut in 2002, ended his career with 704 wickets in the longest format, the most-ever by a fast bowler in the history of Test cricket and the third-highest overall after Muttiah Muralidaran of Sri Lanka and Australia's Shane Warne. After the match, former India cricketer Sachin Tendulkar took X, formerly known as Twitter, to share an "incredible" post for the England great. Wish you a wonderful life ahead with good health and happiness as you put those new shoes on for the most important spell of your life - the time with family.” Tendulkar's tweet came just days after Anderson labelled him as the "best batter" he has ever faced in his international career, despite his much-famed rivalry with former India captain Virat Kohli, who managed to dominate the England fast bowler ever since he recovered from the forgettable 2014 England tour.
