But Anderson’s desire to strive for excellence in the home straight of his storied career is evident in the change he has brought in his run-up for the five-Test series in India. <\/p>\n
\u201cOne thing that was not right was my run-up speed,\u201d a report in ‘inews.co.uk’ quoted him saying. \u201cI can\u2019t rely on that fast-twitch snap at the crease I\u2019ve had over the years, so I\u2019ve been working on my momentum to get speed that way. The ball is coming out really well.\u201d
Talking about Anderson’s “desire to carry on”, Darren Gough, another England fast-bowling great, said a change as major as tweaking your run-up can also lead to injuries.
\u201cIt just goes to show the desire to carry on playing,\u201d said Gough, who is the managing director at Yorkshire club, talking to ‘inews.co.uk’.
\u201cThe only thing is when you\u2019ve been doing something so long as Jimmy has, when you start quickening up, you bring more injuries into play, more hamstring, calf, groin-type injuries. When you start having injuries they tend to follow you.
\u201cHe\u2019s such an athlete. But changing your run up? It could be absolutely brilliant but like anything, when you change your dynamics, it could set off injuries. Let\u2019s hope not because I think even at his age he can perform,” Gough added.
The first India-England Test begins on January 25 in Hyderabad.<\/div>\n
