The Hundred 2025 LIVE: Manchester Originals Men vs Southern Brave Men

'I still feel like a 20 year-old in the field'

Manchester Originals and England legend James Anderson speaking on Sky Sports about his Hundred debut : "I have spent most of my time playing Test cricket so that usually got in the way of things like this! I am really excited. I have enjoyed my time at Lancashire this summer and a taste of the T20 Blast. I'm really grateful to be here."

On his physicality: "My body feels good. I have worked hard on my fitness throughout the winter. When you get older, you have to put more effort in. I have coped with the pressure of county cricket and credit to the boys who do it every year because it is tough."

"Walking to the ground this morning, I was speaking to kids who I feel are too young to even know who I am. I am grateful as I said. It does feel like a different atmosphere but I am excited to see what happens."

"I feel fit enough to contribute to the game. I still feel like a 20 year-old in the outfield. I want to get to the final and lift that trophy."
