James Anderson has not ruled out continuing to play county cricket after his England retirement, says Lancashire head coach Dale Benkenstein.
England’s leading wicket taker of all time will play his 188th and final Test match against the West Indies at Lord’s, starting next Wednesday.
The 41-year-old has taken 700 Test wickets, the most by a pace bowler.
“I think the positive thing is that it’s not a no [to Anderson returning]. We are not pressuring him. He’s been fantastic, he’s had an incredible career,” Benkenstein told BBC Radio Lancashire.
“He definitely can still play, it’ll just be whether he still has the desire to want to. Bowling is hard work and we will let him make the decision when the time is right.”
Anderson, who turns 42 at the end of July, will remain with the England squad throughout the summer in a coaching capacity as a fast-bowling mentor.
