James Anderson looks to exploit reverse swing for wickets in Sri Lanka Test series

James Anderson hopes the tour of Sri Lanka this time will prove more frutiful for him than in previous years as he looks to exploit reverse swing and movement with the new ball. He has bowled just 176.4 overs -- 16 overs per innings on average in Sri Lanka which is lower than the 19.3 overs per innings he has bowled in his career. Anderson is the first pace bowler to take 600 Test wickets and is just 20 short of overtaking Anil Kumble and becoming the third highest wickettaker in Test history behind Muttiah Muralitharan and Shane Warne. Our job might be about shorter spells and less overs in the day but there are definitely still opportunities to take wickets."
