IND vs ENG 1st Test: Reverse swing made us feel we were in game all the time, says James Anderson

India TV News  

England fast bowler James Anderson's three-wicket burst in the first session on Tuesday broke India's backbone as the hosts crumbled to 110/5 from 92/2 in just over six overs, before getting bowled out for 192 and losing the first Test by 227 runs here. But the 38-year-old England pacer used reverse swing to good effect to run through the Indian middle-order and let England barge into the game. So that movement in the air just makes it so much better for us seamers to make sure that you have a chance of wicket at any ball," said Anderson after the match. In 2012-13, too, during the third Test in Kolkata, Anderson had used the reverse swing well picking six wickets, three in each innings.
