LONDON: England fast bowler James Anderson may sit out some of the Test matches on their tours of Bangladesh and India, he said on Wednesday. The 34-year-old, England’s leading Test wicket-taker with 463 victims, was named in the squad for the tour to Bangladesh where they play Two tests next month. England travel to India in early November for a five-Test series. “It’s a tough one because as a player if you’re fit you want to play, simple as that, no matter what the format you’re desperate to play,” Anderson said. “You want, if possible, to play every Test but India is going to be five back to back and that’s a huge ask for any bowler.”
