“He is a legend, we learn a lot of things from him and whenever we meet we discuss something. So, that’s a big thing for him.
“He is still playing at 40. He is still playing and fit, so you can imagine how hard he is working,” said Pakistan’s young pacer Naseem Shah on Anderson.
Meanwhile, the reporter went on to ask the pacer to add more about the craft and his opinions about England’s bowling great James Anderson.
To which, the young paceman replied, “Brother, I have just 30 per cent English. My English is finished now, okay.”
