James Anderson last played his last T20 match in 2014. He has never played in IPL. He has registered himself for the auction to be held in Jeddah on November 24 and 25 and has kept his base price at Rs 1.25 crore.
Anderson told 'BBC Radio 4 Today' in a podcast, 'There is still something inside me that feels that I can still play. I have never played IPL. I have never experienced this and for many reasons I feel I have a lot to offer as a player. ,
Why does Anderson want to play IPL?
By playing in the world's biggest T20 league, he not only wants to increase his knowledge as a bowler but also wants to gain experience and knowledge as a coach. The fast bowler said, 'I have done a little coaching since I finished my career in the summer. I am also working with the England team as a 'mentor' to some extent. I think that playing in such a league and gaining experience will probably help me increase my knowledge about the game which will benefit me in the future.
When was the last match played?
Anderson last played a T20 match for his county team Lancashire in August 2014, while his last match in this format for England was in November 2009.
