County season ‘takes precedence’ over coaching roleAnderson, 42: ‘I want to play while I’m still fit enough’
Jimmy Anderson has said turning out for Lancashire will take precedence over any coaching opportunities with England this summer after agreeing a new one-year contract to play in the County Championship and the T20 Blast.
The 42-year-old has been working as a consultant coach for England since his enforced retirement from Test cricket last summer and will be part of Brendon McCullum’s backroom staff for the Champions Trophy in Pakistan next month.
