3 Bowlers who not worry about Records: Cricket world's legendary fast bowler James Anderson has recently said goodbye to international cricket. After England's victory in the historic Lord's Test against West Indies, James Anderson decided to put a full stop to his career and retire. James Anderson is considered one of England's greatest fast bowlers. Although Anderson could have broken many big records if he had played a few more matches, but Anderson announced his retirement. In such a situation, today we will tell you about 3 bowlers who said goodbye to international cricket without worrying about the records.
Former great South African fast bowler Shaun Pollock was considered one of the most lethal bowlers of his time. When Pollock decided to retire from cricket, he had 431 wickets in his name in Tests. Pollock had a chance to break the record of 434 Test wickets of former Indian captain Kapil Dev. However, Pollock did not worry about it and said goodbye to cricket with 431 Test wickets.
Sri Lanka's legendary spinner Rangana Herath has trapped the world's biggest batsmen in his career. He took 433 Test wickets in his bowling. Herath was one of Sri Lanka's most successful bowlers. Herath had a golden opportunity to break Kapil Dev's Test wicket record in his career. However, Herath did not pay much attention to it and ended his career with 433 Test wickets.
James Anderson comes first in this list. Anderson never cared about any record. He achieved continuous success in his career but he never ran after records. He also said recently that his focus is on making the team win and not on any record. Actually, James Anderson had a golden opportunity to surpass the record of 708 Test wickets of Australia's late Shane Warne.
If Anderson had done so, he would have become the world's second-highest wicket-taker after Muttiah Muralitharan. However, Anderson did not pay attention to this record and ended his international career with 704 Test wickets.
