Obviously, when I go in at No. 11 it stands to reason that we will have a better chance of scoring runs or batting out time if the batsman at the other end takes most of the strike. That's because, as my place in the order suggests, he is a better batsman than me.
Quote by -James Anderson
I regard sledging, chirping, whatever you want to call it, as one of the weapons at my disposal.
Quote by -James Anderson
If someone says something to me, I am not going to back down. Whether it's defending myself or standing up for one of my teammates, that is the way I play the game.
Quote by -James Anderson
From an England point of view they have put money into white-ball cricket because our performances in World Cups has not been good enough, I understand the reasons for that. But we have to be careful not to go too one-day, we have to find a balance because there is such a legacy of Test cricket in this country and we can't lose that.
Quote by -James Anderson
For me I love playing against the best players in the world, testing yourself and seeing whether you can get the better of them.
Quote by -James Anderson
This game's a lot easier early on in your career because people haven't seen you play. Things got a lot harder when people saw what I did with the ball and began to think about how to bat against me.
Quote by -James Anderson
Maybe, early on, I had too many coaches, with three or four guys all giving different input.
Quote by -James Anderson
Some of the best cricketers in the world were very quiet on the field but came across in a way that made it very hard to sledge them. It went in one ear and out the other.
Quote by -James Anderson
Dealing with sledging is an individual thing. For me, I am not going to take abuse from David Warner or anyone else and not have a word back. But it is down to the person.
Quote by -James Anderson
I would like a better record here in Australia but I would like a better record in every country.
Quote by -James Anderson
I love talking about the game and passing on knowledge if I can but being a coach full time is another story.
Quote by -James Anderson
In the heat of battle you might not be thinking clearly and that is when players have to take on the responsibility of helping the other guys out.
Quote by -James Anderson
It would obviously be a big deal to reach 500 wickets but I don't see it as a target or goal, it's not something that has driven me on.
Quote by -James Anderson
The pink ball is a bit different. I don't think it moves as much through the air.
Quote by -James Anderson
It is a knowledgeable crowd at Old Trafford and they will also tell you when you are not bowling well.
Quote by -James Anderson
I dreamt of playing for Lancashire then but never really thought it would happen.
Quote by -James Anderson
When games are close together you have to draw a line under the first match whether you win or lose, and then start again for the next one.
Quote by -James Anderson
There is a lot of talk about how Twenty20 has changed batting techniques in Test cricket. But it has also had an impact on bowling.
Quote by -James Anderson
You can get suckered into believing you have to always be attacking with the bat, ball or fielding positions. But Test cricket is not always like that. There are times when it is a bit slow paced and even a bit boring.
Quote by -James Anderson
It is easy to get carried away in this Twenty20 era and think Test cricket has to be entertaining all the time.
Quote by -James Anderson
There have not been many occasions when I have bowled pain free and generally you are not 100 percent.
Quote by -James Anderson
I realise I would not be the bowler I am today without the experiences, positive and negative, that I have had in Australia down the years.
Quote by -James Anderson
You cannot treat someone differently just because they have become captain. We still took the mickey out of Alastair Cook when he was in charge. You have to treat them first and foremost as a team-mate.
Quote by -James Anderson
I understand that when a player reaches his mid-thirties, and has a few injuries, people start to question how long he can last.
Quote by -James Anderson
An inswinger - that gets an lbw or bowled - after a few outswingers is always very pleasing.
Quote by -James Anderson
Hashim Amla is someone that stands out. He's a world-class player and I have not had a huge amount of success against him.
Quote by -James Anderson
I'm enjoying playing. As long as that continues, I'll carry on playing as long as I can.
Quote by -James Anderson
I will try to keep going as long as I can. I'd love to play until the age of 40 - it will be interesting to see if I can do that.
Quote by -James Anderson
I played at Lancashire when Glen Chapple was 40 to 41 and he was as good as he ever was then.
Quote by -James Anderson
Being away so much makes you treasure those moments you are at home, spending time with your family.
Quote by -James Anderson
As a cricketer you can go under the radar. It's not like we're footballers who get papped everywhere. I can go down to the corner shop without getting hassled.
Quote by -James Anderson
I know my game really well and I'm relatively comfortable in most situations.
