Jimmy Anderson was a fixture of the England Test team for most of the last 20 years. The 42 year old retired from international duty in July, having taken 704 Test Match wickets, making him the most-prolific quick bowler of all time.
He's recently released his autobiography "Finding the Edge", which he wrote with Felix White, his friend and co-presenter of the 麻豆社 podcast Tailenders.
Speaking with Stumped鈥檚 Alison Mitchell, he explained how he and his family dealt with personal tragedy, how best to bowl to Steve Smith and Virat Kohli and why he's decided to enter the 2024 IPL auction.
