Anderson aims for 400 Test wickets - chairman - 10-16-2013
England fast bowler James Anderson has his sights on taking 400 Test wickets, a milestone he said he could reach in around two years as long as he remains fit.
Anderson, currently with 329 Test wickets, is second on England's all-time wicket-takers list, behind Ian Botham (383).
"Just 71 more! I don't know. I'd like to think if I can stay fit, then I can do it," Anderson said to Alison Mitchell on her Tea Break series on ESPNcricinfo. "Because if I'm still playing in a couple of years' time, I've got to keep taking wickets to stay in the team. At the moment I'm really enjoying playing and being part of a successful team. That's what makes me happy and why I keep getting out of bed."
