Probably why Anderson takes the Pavilion end at Lords when swing bowlers normally prefer the Nursery end. At he Nursery end the ball does too much and the batsman either leaves or plays and misses. At the Pavilion end it often does just enough to find the edge.

In the recent World t20 qualifiers in Asia, Nepali legspinner Sandeep Lamichhane took 20 wickets off 17 overs at an average of...

2.05!!!
