What about Broad? His transition from useful ‘almost‘ all rounder to bunny has been tragic. I think in his and Anderson’s case they have just got so sick of picking up the pieces after batting collapses. Childish I know, but must be frustrating when they bowl their hearts out only to see fragile batsmen piss it all away.Just quickly, one thing that has annoyed me over the years is watching Jimmy Anderson trying to bat. You'd think a 20 year professional, a player with obvious natural sporting ability, would have at some time learned a forward and backward defence.
