James Anderson’s new Hairstyle is the Talk of the Town
England begin their home season with a two-match Test series against Pakistan, starting May 24 at Lord’s, London.
England fast bowler James Anderson sported a new bleached blond hair colour when he took the field for the first time this season for Lancashire while playing against Somerset in the County Championship. Rather than Anderson’s bowling, it was his hairdo that caught everyone’s attention. England’s record wicket-taker failed to pick any wicket on an opening day and returned with figures of 0/70 from 19 overs. Thanks to Anderson’s former England colleague Marcus Trescothick and George Bartlett’s centuries Somerset ended the day one on 321-5.
Somerset were eventually bowled out for 429. Even on day two, Anderson failed to pick any wicket and ended with figures of 0/91 from 26 overs in the first innings. At the end of day two, Lancashire were 217/2 with Keaton Jennings and Dane Vilas batting on 91 and 83 respectively.
After Anderson took the field, his pictures were all over the social media. Former England spinner and Anderson’s teammate Graeme Swann took to Twitter and wrote, “Sorry will try that again...I think it’s great that my mate @jimmy9 has revealed his love of Phillip schofield to the world.”
No more shady!
