Its easy to forget how great Kapil is and his achievements playing so many tests in that era for India. Suffers in retrospect for playing alongside Imran, Botham, Hadlee.

Only missed one Test all career, when he was dropped for playing an 'irresponsible' shot against England in the 84-85 series. Amazing for a pace bowler to never once be unavailable in a career lasting over a decade and a half.

Norwood's on Fire
Anderson has only missed 4 Tests in the Bazball era I think...granted the six month break between Ashes & this tour probably helped.

So I would guess he'd need to go to the end of 25 to play 17 more.

The Jofra predictions…oof! With 3 years’ hindsight I’m going to say 16, we’ll almost certainly pick him next winter and then he’ll disappear again

I don't think Archer will play 56 Tests. I had to look up how many he has played - 13. I would say 20 Tests. Probably move on to white ball cricket and keep his speeds up.

I see Leach has played exactly 38 as of now.

Travis Head has played 49. I reckon he'll reach/go close to 100.

Unless Glenn Phillips gets a major injury or becomes a T20 franchise gun for hire, he will play 60+ tests and be a top 15 allrounder of all time.
