James Anderson to quit first-class cricket after Lancashire snub

Original: Denied contract by Lancashire, James Anderson set to quit first-class cricket at 44

England's all-time leading Test wicket-taker James Anderson is set to retire from first-class cricket at 44 after Lancashire declined to offer him a new contract. The decision brings down the curtain on one of the most celebrated fast-bowling careers in the game, with Anderson having continued playing beyond his England retirement.

Why now: One of cricket's greatest bowlers is ending his first-class career after his county chose not to renew his contract.
