In response to Rashid reaching 200 ODI wickets, someone posted a list of England's top wicket takers in these games. And, despite not playing them for years, Anderson is still well clear of the rest with 269. Something I'd quite forgotten actually.

Broad second too I imagine. You forget these guys probably played 150+ odis apiece.

There was a time, I'm sure he was considered a one-day specialist, why all this talk of him being picked up by a franchise isn't that far-fetched.

Yes, absolutely true. I remember his first appearances in the 2002-03 trilateral series in Australia, after we'd been handed our usual thrashing in the tests, when he did well and sent down one extraordinary spell of 10 overs for about 12 runs. Then he did OK in the WC, including a match winning spell against Pakistan and took a hat-trick against the same opponents in an ODI in England a few months later. That same summer he struggled in the tests against SA and barely played tests for the next 3 or 4 years, but presumably he stayed in the ODI side.

Get Potts and Stone back on please.

EDIT
Oh come on, what on earth is the point of bringing Jacks back on now? That's just perverse.
And while we're at it, Jacks should never be bowling wides.

Seems like we've very much England'd up this innings: gone way too hard for too long and not batted at a good tempo to maintain wickets in hand.
