Why take any other bowlers if you're gonna pick your mate regardless of of injured they are. Nice one.

Even tho,I'm from Burnley, I've never been andersons biggest fan, he's not quick enough, and is limited unless its swinging sideways, ,
But to bowl with a broken rib?
No, doesn't make sense, what did they do? Pump him full of painkillers?
Your still not gonna be able to bowl anywhere near what should be expected of a professional cricketer

All those fans paying to watch have been robbed

Yeah, makes no sense to me. Wouldn't surprise me if it isn't true and is just an excuse for poor performance.

Whether it is true or not, I cannot honestly say.

You could bowl with a crack in your rib, I suppose?

The thing that amazes me with this revelation is that Anderson bowled considerably better in the last two tests when he was injured as opposed to the first two tests when he was not.

Also looks like Swann was using strettons in one of the pictures in the article Saunders posted
