The fact he missed 1 in 3 Tests still saw him play Test Cricket more often than many of his contemporaries, and more often than those who came before him and played at his age.
I dunno, Coronis doesn’t rate Anderson as much as many which is fair enough but even in spite of that I was surprised to not see him in the list. But I get the points being made.
