It Is hard to believe James Anderson when he says he has "made peace" with the decision by England's management that the Test against West Indies this week will be his 188th and last.
With one sentence, he "completely understands the decision", and with the next, he comments on how he feels he is "bowling as well as ever" and that all he is currently focusing on for the week ahead is playing well, bowling well and getting a win. "I'm sure the emotions during the week will change," Anderson said to the press at Lord's yesterday. "But right now that's what I'm trying to focus on to stop myself crying."
